Noncompliance with any of the provisions of this chapter, or the falsification of any information that may be required by this chapter, shall be cause for the immediate revocation of any permit issued for sand blasting with respect to any project. Whenever the Code Enforcement Officer has knowledge that any person to whom such a permit has been issued under this chapter has violated any of the provisions of this chapter, the Code Enforcement Officer shall immediately suspend the permit and give the permit holder written notice by registered mail, special delivery, of a hearing to be held before Council, within three days of such suspension, to determine whether or not the permit should be revoked.
This notice shall contain a statement of the facts upon which the Code Enforcement Officer has acted in suspending the permit. At the hearing before Council, the permit holder, or any other interested person, may present evidence as to the facts upon which the Code Enforcement Officer based the suspension of the permit and any other facts which may aid Council in determining whether or not any of the provisions of this chapter has been violated and whether or not the purpose for which the permit was issued has been violated. If, after such hearing, Council finds that this chapter has been violated, or the purpose has been misrepresented, it shall, within two days after the hearing, file in its office for public inspection and serve upon the permit holder, and all interested persons participating in the hearing, a written statement of the facts upon which it bases such finding and shall immediately revoke the permit. If, after such hearing, Council finds that this chapter has not been violated, it shall, within two days after the hearing, give to the permit holder a written statement cancelling the suspension of the permit and stating that no violation or misrepresentation was found to have been committed.
