§ 6-1-130. Appeal of license denial.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    If an application for a license is denied by the Town Administrator/Clerk, the applicant may appeal such denial to the Town Administrator/Clerk. In authorizing the issuance of a license hereunder, the Town Administrator/Clerk may specify conditions, including hours of operation or manner of operation, which are intended to ensure that the place of business will not be unduly annoying to any residential areas in the vicinity. The Town Administrator/Clerk may deny the application the Town Administrator/Clerk determines that such business in the location requested will unreasonably disrupt the peace and quiet of any residential neighborhood in the Town.

    (b)

    In the event that any application for a license hereunder is denied by the Town Administrator/Clerk or if the Town Administrator/Clerk will issue the license only upon conditions which are not acceptable to the applicant, the applicant may appeal the decision of the Town Administrator/Clerk to the Board of Trustees, provided that notice of such appeal is filed at least ten (10) days before the meeting of the Board of Trustees at which the applicant requests that the appeal be heard. Such appeal must be in writing with reasons for the appeal so stated. At the time of hearing the appeal, the applicant may submit to the Board of Trustees any material evidence relating to the application, and the Board of Trustees shall consider the same, together with the report of the Town Administrator/Clerk, and make a final determination upon the application.
