Non-renewals, suspensions, and revocations of an adult establishment license are governed by the following:
(A) Notice and hearing. In the event that the city proposes not to renew, suspend, or revoke a license, the city will notify the licensee in writing of the basis for the action. The Council will hold a hearing for the purpose of determining whether to not renew, suspend, or revoke the license. The hearing must be within thirty (30) days of the date of the notice. The City Council must determine whether to not renew, suspend, or revoke a license within thirty (30) days after the close of the hearing or within sixty (60) days of the date of the notice, whichever is sooner. The Council must notify the licensee of its decision within that period.
(B) Suspension or revocation. If the Council determines to suspend or revoke a license, the suspension or revocation is not effective until fifteen (15) days after notification of the decision to the licensee. If, within that fifteen (15) days, the licensee files and serves an action in state or federal court challenging the Council's action, the suspension or revocation is stayed until the conclusion of such action.
(C) Non-renewal. If the City Council determines not to renew a license, the licensee may continue its business for fifteen (15) days after receiving notice of such non-renewal. If the licensee files and serves an action in state or federal court within the fifteen (15) days for the purpose of determining whether the city acted properly, the licensee may continue in business until the conclusion of the action.
(D) Prompt judicial review. After denial of an application or a renewal of an application, or suspension or revocation of any license, the applicant or licensee may seek prompt judicial review of such action in any court of competent jurisdiction. The court shall promptly review such action.
