(a) If an inspection of a facility licensed under this chapter reveals:

(1) The kennel facility constitutes a health hazard;

(2) The kennel facility violates a City or Borough ordinance or regulation;

(3) The kennel facility violates a provision of this title, a term, condition, or limitation of a license issued under this chapter or a City regulation promulgated under this title. The inspecting agency may so notify the operator of the facility, stating in writing the steps the operator may take to remedy the violation.

(b) The inspecting agency shall allow a kennel facility operator who has been notified of a violation under subsection (a) of this section a reasonable time not exceeding fifteen (15) days to remedy the violation. At the end of that period, the inspecting agency shall re-inspect the kennel facility to determine whether the violation has been cured.

(c) If after re-inspection, the inspecting agency determines the violation has not been cured or that new violations have occurred, the Chief Animal Control Officer may commence a proceeding to revoke the license for the facility under KMC 3.15.040.

(d) Before revoking a license under this chapter, the Chief Animal Control Officer or designee shall hold a hearing to determine whether the license should be revoked. If the license is revoked, the Animal Control Office shall prepare a written decision as to why the proposed facility does not meet the standards set forth in KMC 3.15.050. An appeal of the decision may be filed as provided under KMC 3.15.040.
