said license or permit.

of a license or permit shall be given in writing, setting forth specifically

at least 10 days prior to the date set for hearing.

Authority of hearing officer. The issuing officer or
any hearing officer appointed by him or her may administer oaths, subpoena
witnesses and take testimony in respect to any matter properly before him
or her and may accept affidavits in lieu of oral testimony.

Appeals. Any person aggrieved by the action of the issuing
officer in the denial of an application for a license or permit or in the
decision of the issuing officer or hearing officer with reference to the revocation
of a license or permit as provided for in this section shall have the right
to appeal to the City Council. Such appeal shall be taken by filing a notice
of appeal with the City Clerk within 14 days after notice of the action complained
