Latest version.
(a)
If such application for a license required under this division is submitted in proper
form, including all information and exhibits required, and accompanied by the correct
investigative fee, an inspection and investigation shall be conducted. If all requirements
of all departments concerned, as well as those qualifications specified in this division
are met, the license shall be issued by the department of police services. If the
department of police recommends denial of the license, the application shall be submitted
to the license review board. The license review board shall conduct a hearing at a
regularly scheduled meeting and report its conclusions and recommendations to the
mayor. The mayor, upon receiving the recommendation of the license review board, may,
within 60 calendar days of receipt of said recommendation, deny or grant the application
for a new license. In addition, within said 60-day period, if the mayor determines
there is a need to correct a clear error or prevent a manifest injustice, the mayor
may remand the application or matter back to the license review board for further
hearing. If the mayor fails to take action within the 60-day period, the recommendation
of the license review board shall become the final decision of the mayor.
(b)
All licenses issued pursuant to this division shall be valid for a period of one year.
