(b) Applications for a license may be denied by the Mayor:
(1) If the mechanical amusement device is in any manner violative of Chapter 517 of these Codified Ordinances or Ohio R.C. Chapter 2915;
(2) If the applicant or any partner or other person associated with the applicant who has a proprietary interest in the mechanical amusement device, the revenue it generates or the premises in which it is situated is of bad moral character, which, for purposes of this chapter, means having been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a crime involving moral turpitude within five years preceding the date of the application; or
