An applicant or licensee may, within ten (10) days after service of a written notice of denial of a license or suspension or revocation of his license, file a request for a hearing with the city manager or their designated hearing officer. The request for a hearing shall be in writing and signed by or on behalf of the applicant or licensee. It need not be verified or follow any particular form. Failure to file such a request for a hearing shall constitute a waiver of the licensee's right to a hearing and may result in a revocation of the permit. At the hearing, the burden shall be upon the applicant to show that the action appealed from is unreasonable, arbitrary, or in excess of jurisdiction. The appellant shall be entitled to representation by counsel and to present testimony through other witnesses. The action of the city manager or their designee shall be final. (Ord. 445 § 1, 2024; Ord. 117 § 11, 1993)
