A. If the alarm administrator denies the application for an alarm user permit or the renewal application for an alarm user permit, the alarm administrator shall give the permit applicant written notice of the denial of the alarm user permit application or the alarm user permit renewal application. The notice shall be sent by firstclass mail to the address provided in the application. The notice shall include the grounds for denial of the alarm user permit application or the alarm user permit renewal application, and a statement of the applicant's right to file an appeal with the alarm appeals hearing officer.
B. An applicant may appeal denial of the application for an alarm user permit or the renewal application for an alarm user permit by filing a notice of appeal with the alarm appeals hearing officer within thirty (30) days from date of mailing of the notice of the denial. A notice of appeal shall be accompanied by an appeal fee. The appeal procedures and the conduct of the hearings shall be governed by Section 8.36.260.
C. The failure of any person to file a timely notice of appeal with the required appeal fee in accordance with the provisions of this section shall constitute an irrevocable waiver of the right to appeal and a failure to exhaust administrative remedies. (Ord. 2012-023 § 2)
