Whenever it shall be shown, or whenever the City Manager has knowledge, that any person to whom a permit has been issued under this chapter has violated any of the provisions of this chapter, or that any promoter, agent or solicitor of a permit holder has misrepresented the purpose of the solicitation, the City Manager shall immediately suspend the permit and give the permit holder written notice by certified mail of a hearing to be held within two days of such suspension to determine whether or not the permit should be revoked. This notice must contain a statement of the facts upon which the City Manager has acted in suspending the permit. At the hearing the permit holder, and any other interested person, shall have the right to present evidence as to the facts upon which the City Manager based the suspension of the permit, and any other facts which may aid the City Manager in determining whether the provisions of this chapter have been violated and whether the purpose of the solicitation has been misrepresented. If, after such hearing the City Manager finds that such provisions have been violated, or the purpose of the solicitation has been misrepresented, he shall within two days after the hearing file in his 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 he bases such finding and shall immediately revoke the permit. If, after such hearing the City Manager finds that the provisions of this chapter have not been violated and the purpose of the solicitation has not been misrepresented, he shall within two days after the hearing give 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.
