Before the Director denies, suspends, or revokes any license or license renewal, the Director must notify the applicant or licensee in writing that a hearing will be held to determine whether grounds exist for the denial, suspension, or revocation. The notice must:be mailed to the applicant or licensee, at the address given on the most-recent application, at least 5 days before the scheduled hearing; and include the date, time, and place of the hearing. At the hearing, the applicant or licensee may:have the assistance of counsel; appear by counsel; and present evidence. If the applicant or licensee fails to appear at the hearing, in person or by counsel, the evidence of the grounds for the denial, suspension, or revocation are considered unrebutted. Ord. 02-475
