San Antonio City Code § 16-951
in effectSec. 16-951. - Revocation of permit.
(a) Except as provided in subsection (b), the director shall revoke any permit issued to operate a boarding home facility if the director determines that:
(1) The permit holder fails to meet the criminal history qualifications of this article or employs a person at the facility who fails to meet the criminal history qualifications.
(2) The permit holder intentionally made a false statement as to a material matter in the application or in a hearing concerning the permit;
(3) The permit holder failed to pay a fee required by this article at the time it was due; or
(4) A cause for suspension under section 16-950 has occurred and the permit has already been suspended at least once within the preceding twelve (12) months.
(b) In lieu of revoking a permit for a boarding home facility, the director, at his sole discretion may enter into a compliance agreement with a permit holder if the director determines that the compliance agreement would eliminate the noncompliance that would otherwise justify a revocation, result in prompt future inspections, and elevate one (1) or more conditions at the boarding home facility to a standard above the requirements of this chapter.
(c) Before revoking a license under subsection (a), the director shall notify the permit holder in writing by certified mail, return receipt requested, that the permit is being considered for revocation. The notice must include the reason for the proposed revocation, action the permit holder must take to prevent the revocation, and a statement that the permit holder has ten (10) calendar days to comply with the notice.
(d) If, after ten (10) calendar days from the date of the notice required in subsection (c) was sent or delivered (whichever is later), the permit holder has not complied with required actions listed in the notice, the director shall revoke the permit and notify the permit holder in writing of the revocation. The notice must include the reason for the revocation, and a statement informing the permit holder of the right of appeal.
(e) If a permit has been revoked, the permit holder has ten (10) calendar days from the date the notice was sent or delivered (whichever is later), to relocate the residents of the facility and cease operations. An appeal of the revocation does not suspend or toll this deadline.
