5.32.160   Restrictions on transfers or attempted transfers of licenses and work permits.
   Except as provided in Section 5.32.170, no person shall transfer or attempt to transfer any interest in a license or permit issued under this chapter, nor shall any person transfer or attempt to transfer any interest in a license or permit issued under this chapter in violation of state law. The privilege conferred by the licenses and permits issued under this chapter shall not be transferable, except as expressly provided in this section, and each license and permit shall so provide on its face. A cardroom license is not property and shall have no value. Any attempt to transfer, directly or indirectly, a cardroom license in violation of the provisions of this chapter shall be unlawful and void, and shall automatically revoke the license. Any cardroom licensee whose license is automatically revoked under this section may appeal the revocation by filing a written notice of appeal with the city clerk not later than ten (10) days after the date of revocation in the manner set forth in Section 5.32.100(B) of this chapter. Upon failure to file a notice of appeal within the ten (10) day period, the automatic revocation shall be final and conclusive.
