Hearing on a denial of the issuance or transfer of a permit under this Chapter or on the suspension or revocation of a permit under this Chapter shall be before the Airport Advisory Commission. At such hearing the permittee may present evidence, call witnesses and be represented by counsel. The Commission may render its decision orally at the conclusion of the hearing, but shall provide the permit applicant or permittee with written notice of its decision not later than five (5) days after the date of the hearing.
(A) On appeal of a denial of the issuance or transfer of a permit, the Commission may affirm the denial or approve the issuance or transfer of a permit, and may, upon approval thereof, impose such reasonable conditions related to the use of the permit as are appropriate in the circumstances.
(B) After hearing on the suspension or revocation of a permit, the Commission may:
1. Revoke the permit.
2. Suspend the permit for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days. In its decision to suspend a permit, the Commission may provide for the reinstatement of the permit prior to the expiration of the suspension period upon the fulfillment of such reasonable conditions as the Commission may impose, and may further provide that in the event such conditions have not been fulfilled upon the expiration of the suspension period, the period of suspension will be extended for a stated additional period. In the event of an extension, notice thereof and the reasons therefor shall be provided to the permittee, but further hearing shall not be required, unless requested in writing by the permittee. Provided, however, that no suspension shall be continued for a total period in excess of sixty (60) days without notice and hearing as provided in this Chapter.
3. Issue a letter of warning notifying the permittee that any further violation may result in the suspension or revocation of the permit.
4. Allow the use of the permit to continue and impose such reasonable conditions related to the use of the permit as are appropriate under the circumstances. (Ord. 2631, 10-12-1999)
