A.

Any permit issued hereunder may be revoked or suspended if, after due investigation, the animal shelter finds that the permittee, agent or employee:

1.

Has been convicted of any offense involving the violation of Section 597 of the Penal Code, or of any provision of this chapter; or

2.

Has, at the place for which the permit was issued, failed to provide any animal, fowl or reptile with proper and sufficient food, drink, shelter or protection, or has subjected any such animal, fowl or reptile to needless suffering, unnecessary cruelty, or abuse; or

3.

Has failed to maintain the premises in a clean and sanitary condition; or

4.

Has violated any rule or regulation of the animal shelter.

B.

Following such finding, any such permit shall be deemed revoked upon the animal shelter mailing to the holder of such license written notification of revocation, addressed to such licensee at the address appearing upon such license. Any licensee whose license has been suspended or revoked shall be entitled to appeal the decision to the board of supervisors in accordance with Chapter 2.88 of this code upon the merits of such revocation or suspension.
