  • Every application for a cabaret license pursuant to this chapter shall be filed with the city clerk and shall be immediately referred to the city council for consideration at its next regular meeting. The city council may then grant such license if in its judgment the applicant is a fit and proper person to run such business. Such license shall be issued by the city clerk. If in the judgment of the city council such applicant is not a fit and proper person to run such busi- ness, or if it believes the applicant will violate the laws of the state or the provisions of this code or other ordi- nances of the city, the council may reject the application of the applicant. Notice of rejection of an application, containing the reason therefor, shall be mailed to the last address of the applicant as shown by such application. Upon request by said applicant, within five days of the date of such mailing, the council shall fix a day and time for a hearing at which time said applicant will be given an opportunity to appear before the council. The council shall, within ten days from the date of such hearing, enter its order approving or sustaining denial of the application of said applicant.
