[Amended 10-18-1976 by L.L. No. 12-1976]
No permit shall be issued by the Village Board of Trustees for the purposes set forth in §§ 69-2 and 69-3 in any case in which, in the judgment of the Board of Trustees, such purpose would create conditions likely to impair the health, peace, quiet and order of the village.
Permits for the purposes contained in §§ 69-2 and 69-3 shall be uniform and may, in the discretion of the Board of Trustees, contain provisions and conditions which, in its judgment, may be essential for the welfare and benefit of the people of the village.
Any permit for the purposes contained in §§ 69-2 and 69-3 may be revoked and annulled by the Board of Trustees upon proof of a violation of any provision of this chapter. The proof shall be taken before the Board of Trustees upon notice of not less than two days to show cause why such permit should not be revoked. They shall hear the proofs and allegations of the case and determine the same summarily, and no appeal shall be taken from their determination. Any person whose permit shall have been revoked or annulled shall not thereafter be entitled to a permit under any of the provisions of this chapter. On an examination pursuant to notice to show cause, as aforesaid, the permittee may be a witness in his own behalf.
All yards or pens, when permitted by the Village Board, shall be kept in a clean and sanitary condition, and all filth accumulating in or about same shall be removed with such frequency and in such manner as the Village Board shall direct.
