§ 5.20.050. Permit revocation or suspension and appeal.
Latest version.
Any permit issued under this chapter may be revoked or suspended by the director of
planning, building and environmental services for cause on ten days' notice to the
permittee, which notice shall be served by certified mail, return receipt requested,
or in person at the last known place of business. The permittee may appeal such revocation
or suspension to the board of supervisors pursuant to the procedure set forth in Chapter 2.88 of this code. If the revocation or suspension is so appealed, the revocation or suspension
shall not be effective unless and until the action of the director is upheld by the
board, except that if the director has found and determined that revocation or suspension
is necessary to protect the people and environment of the county from immediate hazard
to their health and safety, then the revocation or suspension shall be effective immediately
following the action of the director and shall remain in effect until the action of
the director is reversed by the board on appeal. The decision of the board shall be
final and judicial review thereof shall be pursuant to Sections 1094.5 and 1094.6
of the Code of Civil Procedure.
