When the conduct of any licensee, agent or employee is so inimical to the public health, safety and general welfare as to constitute a nuisance or hazard and thus give rise to an emergency, the Town Manager shall have the authority to summarily order the cessation of business and the closure of the licensed premises pending a hearing on whether to suspend or revoke the license. Unless waived by the licensee in writing, the authority shall conduct a hearing upon the summary order and the activity giving rise to such order within fifteen (15) days after the Town Manager has acted. The order shall state the grounds for its issuance and shall give notice of the hearing and shall be served upon the affected licensee personally or by mailing certified mail to the last address of the licensee as shown in the records of the Town. At such hearing the licensee shall show cause why the summary suspension should not be made a final order of suspension or revocation. (Ord. 782 §2 (Exh. A), 2020)
