§ 17.44.120. License suspension or revocation; revalidation, reinspection and reissuance procedure.

A.

Reissuance of a license that has been revoked or denied upon application for renewal shall be subject to payment of the full amount of the applicable license and inspection fee except that, at the discretion of the Director, the license may be reissued on a six-month basis. When inspections confirm that a property on a six-month licensing schedule is being maintained to code standards the property then shall be placed on a regular annual licensing schedule.

B.

The fee for six-month licenses issued as a result of actions taken under the provisions of Section 17.44.120(A) shall be the same as the fee for an annual license and shall double, progressively, for any subsequent denial or revocation which may occur during the period that the project is being inspected every six months.

C.

Reinspection Fee. A fee as established by resolution of the City Council must be paid before another inspection is made if, for the original inspection, one or more of the following occurred:

1.

Requesting party called or was scheduled for inspection, but work was not ready or violations were not abated;

2.

Requesting party, either owner, agent or tenant, was not on site;

3.

Building or unit was locked.

D.

A suspended license may be revalidated upon meeting the requirements of the code and payment of an amount equivalent to fifty percent of the annual operating license fee.
