Title
A substitute ordinance relating to disqualification of a license application or surrender of a license.
Sections
85-13-3 am
85-17-1 am
Analysis
This ordinance establishes that whenever a new application for a license is withdrawn after the city clerk issues a notice for a hearing on denial, the period of disqualification shall be 6 months from the date of withdrawal.
This ordinance also requires that if a licensee wishes to surrender his or her license or withdraw a renewal application after receiving a notice for a hearing on nonrenewal, revocation or suspension, the licensee shall request, in writing, permission from the licensing committee to do so prior to the date of the hearing rather than prior to the commencement of the hearing, as is currently the case.

Part 1. Section 85-13-3 of the code is amended to read:
85-13. Disqualification for License.
