(a) The City Clerk may suspend or revoke the license of any licensee if the licensee or his agent fails to abide by the provisions of this article or if any required health license has been suspended or revoked.
(b) The City Clerk shall give written notice of suspension or revocation of the license to the licensee or his agent stating the reasons therefor. If the reason for the suspension or revocation is that a required health license has been suspended or revoked or that the licensee does not have a currently effective insurance policy as required by this article, the action shall be effective upon giving such notice to the licensee or to his agent. Otherwise, such notice shall contain the further provision that the action shall become final and effective ten days thereafter, unless within five days of receipt of the notice, the licensee requests a hearing before the City Clerk. The City Clerk, within five days after receipt of a request, shall hold the hearing, at which time the licensee shall be afforded the opportunity to give his version of the facts which gave rise to the City Clerk's action. The City Clerk shall determine whether to proceed with the action or to rescind it and shall so notify the licensee in writing within five days after this hearing. The action of the City Clerk may be appealed in accordance with the provisions of state law.
