§ 22-33. Same—Appeal of denial or revocation.  


Latest version.
  • If an applicant is refused a permit required by this article or has a permit revoked, he may, not later than ten (10) days from the date of receiving notice of such refusal or revocation, appeal to the city council for a public hearing on the refusal or revocation, by directing a letter to the city council setting forth therein the date of denial of the permit or revocation and the reasons why the applicant feels he has been wronged in being refused the permit or having the permit revoked. The city council shall, on receiving such notice of appeal, direct the city secretary to place it on the city council's work agenda to be considered in the due order of city business. The city secretary shall then notify the applicant as to the date and place where the city council will consider his appeal. The notice shall be mailed, not less than five (5) days prior to the hearing, to the applicant or permit holder at the address shown on the permit, certified mail return requested, and such service shall be complete upon mailing. The city council, on conducting the public hearing regarding the applicants appeal, may, by majority vote sustain or by two-thirds ( 2/3 ) of its quorum present, overrule the street department's recommendation.
