Latest version.
  • A. Any driver who may be aggrieved by the action of the chief of police in suspending or revoking his driver's permit or temporary driver's permit, or any applicant who may be aggrieved by the denial by the chief of police of his application, within ten days from such denial, suspension, or revocation, may apply to the city council for a hearing as to the matters in question, whereupon a time for the hearing shall be set, which shall be not later than thirty days thereafter, at which time a full and complete hearing shall be held before the city council.
    B. At the conclusion of the hearing the city council may affirm, modify, or overrule the action of the chief of police, in which latter event the driver's permit shall be granted or reinstated, as the case may be, and the decision of the city council shall be final.
    C. Such hearing, or application therefor, shall not, however, affect the order of suspension or revocation of the chief of police unless and until acted upon and reversed or modified by the city council.
