Whenever any operator fails to comply with any provision of this chapter relating to occupancy tax or any rule or regulation of the tax administrator relating to occupancy tax prescribed and adopted under this chapter, the tax administrator upon hearing, after giving the operator ten days' notice in writing specifying the time and place of hearing and requiring him or her to show cause why his or her permit or permits should not be revoked, may suspend or revoke any or more of the permits held by the operator. The tax administrator shall give to the operator written notice of the suspension or revocation of any of his or her permits. The notices required in this chapter may be served personally or by mail in the manner prescribed for service of notice of a deficiency determination. The tax administrator shall not issue a new permit after the revocation of a permit unless he or she is satisfied that the former holder of the permit will comply with the provisions of this chapter relating to the occupancy tax and regulations of the tax administrator.
