SEC. 11-270. ANNUAL PERMIT RENEWAL.
   (A)   Taxicab driver permits and taxicab operator permits shall continue in effect for the remainder of the fiscal year in which they are issued, unless revoked or modified as provided in section 11-271; provided, however, that taxicab driver permits shall automatically become void on termination of employment or self-employment as a taxicab driver. A taxicab driver permit or taxicab operator permit issued in the last quarter of a fiscal year shall continue in effect for the remainder of the fiscal year in which it is issued, and for the next fiscal year, subject to the foregoing provisions regarding revocation, modification, and automatically becoming void.
   (B)   Permittees shall submit to the license collector applications to renew taxicab driver permits and operator's permits for following fiscal years, together with fees for the renewal and any changes in the information provided in the initial application or a previous renewal application; evidence that required insurance will be in effect for the new fiscal year; and a new certificate of vehicle inspection for each taxicab. In addition, an applicant for renewal of a taxicab driver permit shall submit proof of a negative test for controlled substances and alcohol as required by the city's controlled substance and alcohol testing program, have a new photograph taken by the police chief, and provide a document issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles, dated no more than ten days before the application is submitted, showing that the applicant holds a valid, current California driver's license.
   (C)   The license collector shall refer to the police chief completed applications for renewal of taxicab driver permits and taxicab operator permits. The police chief and the license collector shall process, grant, and deny the applications for renewal as provided in sections 11-265 and 11-266. An applicant for renewal whose application is denied may request a hearing as provided in section 11-267. Conditions on renewal permits shall be as provided in sections 11-268 and 11-269.
   (D)   Applications for renewal of taxicab permits and taxicab operator permits should be submitted by June 15 of each year to allow sufficient time for processing before the current permit expires on June 30.

SEC. 11-271. REVOCATION, SUSPENSION OR MODIFICATION OF TAXICAB PERMIT.
   (A)   A taxicab operator permit or a taxicab driver permit may be revoked or suspended, or additional conditions imposed thereon, for failure of the permittee to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and conditions, based on matters occurring after the permit is issued or on matters not considered at the time of issuance of the permit, that would have authorized denial of the permit or the imposition of conditions on the permit.
   (B)   The police chief may file with the license collector a written request for revocation, suspension, or modification of a taxicab operator permit or a taxicab driver permit, stating facts showing that the permittee has not complied with applicable laws, regulations, or permit conditions and recommending that the permit be revoked or suspended or in what respect the permit should be conditioned.
   (C)   On receiving the request, the license collector shall mail to the permittee a notice that the permit is recommended for revocation, suspension, or conditioning in a specific manner and stating the reasons for that recommendation. The notice shall inform the permittee that the recommendation will be adopted and the permittee will be deemed to concur with the recommendation if the permittee does not make a written request for a hearing in the manner provided in subsection (D) of this section.
   (D)   On receiving the notice, the permittee may make a written request for a hearing. The request must be received by the license collector within 14 days after the license collector mailed the notice of recommended revocation, suspension, or conditioning to the permittee and shall be accompanied by the hearing fee set by resolution of the city council. The request for hearing shall state the reasons that the permittee alleges the notice of recommended revocation, suspension, or conditioning to be incorrect.
   (E)   The procedures for holding a hearing, rendering a decision, and seeking judicial review of the decision shall be as provided in subsections (H) through (N) of section 11-154 of the code.
