No such suspension or revocation shall become effective until the permit or license holder has been notified in writing of the right of such license or permit holder to appeal the suspension or revocation to the city manager within twenty days of the date of notice of such suspension or revocation. Notification to the license or permit holder shall be made either by personal delivery or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the license or permit holder at such license or permit holder's residence address as set forth on the application for a license or permit or renewal thereof. If a timely appeal is filed, the suspension or revocation shall be stayed and shall become effective only upon a final decision of the city manager. Otherwise, the suspension or revocation shall become effective after the timely appeal period has expired. (Ord. 85/T-3910)
