701.12 SUSPENSION AND REVOCATION OF LICENSE.
   The City Recorder, upon reasonable notice to the licensee, may summarily revoke any license issued by him pursuant to the provisions of this article for any reason which would have been grounds for denial of such license when first issued, for violation of any term or condition of such license, for violation of any pertinent provision of state law, this article or other ordinance, or for perpetration of fraud, malpractice, malfeasance by the licensee, without prejudice to prosecution of such licensee by the City. Any person having an interest in any license so revoked and who feels aggrieved thereby may request the City Recorder to further investigate the grounds for revocation and to consider his action, and if the City Recorder accedes to such request, he may suspend or reinstate the license pending his final decision. If the City Recorder refuses to accede to such request, or if, upon reconsideration, he affirms his revocation of the license, the party so aggrieved may appeal to the Common Council, which shall, without delay, afford such person a public hearing at which he may appear in person or by counsel, and may have the attendance of witnesses, books and papers in his behalf, and may testify in person. The decision of the Common Council following such hearing shall be final, subject only to such judicial review as may be provided by law. (Ord. 2-24-86.)
