(1) Any license issued will be valid only for those activities listed on the application form.
(2) Any expansion of the business or activity shall require the submission of a new application form. The giving of false or intentionally misleading information on the application shall be grounds for denial of the license applied for or, if a license has been granted, revocation thereof upon discovery.
(3) If the business is located in Newport, the application shall have the approval of the City’s Zoning Administrator, Fire Inspector and Building Inspector before a license will be issued.

(B) (1) Upon notice from the Chief Financial Officer that a business is being operated in violation of this subchapter, the business shall be immediately stopped.
(2) This notice to stop business operations shall be in writing and shall be given to the owner of the business or an agent and shall state the conditions under which the business may be resumed. Any person who shall continue doing business or who alters, defaces or removes the stop business operations notice shall be liable for the restraints provided in § 37.093.
