A.
The Code Enforcement Officer shall revoke a rental
occupancy permit where he or she finds that the permit holder has
caused, permitted, suffered or allowed to exist and remain upon the
premises for which such permit has been issued, for a period of 10
days or more after written notice has been given to the permit holder
or the managing agent of such rental dwelling unit, a violation of
the Multiple Residence Law, New York State Uniform Fire Prevention
and Building Code, Residential Code of New York State, the Nassau
County Fire Prevention Ordinance, the Town of North Hempstead Code,
the Town of Hempstead or a violation of this chapter or other chapter
of the Village Code. Revocation of a permit under this subsection
cannot be done by a delegate or assistant of the Code Enforcement
Officer.
B.
An appeal from such revocation may be taken by the
permit holder to the Village Board of Trustees, by written request,
made within 30 days from the date of such revocation. The Village
Board of Trustees shall hold a public hearing on such appeal within
30 days after receipt of written notice of such appeal and, after
such hearing, shall make written findings, and a conclusion and a
decision either sustaining such permit revocation or reinstating such
permit within 30 days after the close of such public hearing. Unless
the Village Board of Trustees directs otherwise in circumstances constituting
serious threats to health and safety, the filing of an appeal shall
stay the effectiveness of a permit revocation until the Village Board
of Trustees has considered and ruled upon the issue.
