Upon receipt of the application, the chief of police shall investigate the applicant and the applicant’s employer. No permit shall be issued to any person who has been convicted of the commission of a felony under the laws of the state of California or of any other state or federal law of the United States within five years of the date of the application, nor to any person who has been convicted of a violation of any of the provisions of this chapter, nor to any person whose permit issued under this chapter has previously been revoked as provided in this chapter. In any case other than those specified in the preceding sentence, the chief of police shall issue a permit within ten days after receipt of the application, such permit being subject to such conditions as to hours of operation and other conditions as are specified by the chief of police to be the minimum necessary to protect the public health, welfare and safety. Failure of the chief of police to issue a permit within ten days after receipt of an application therefor shall be deemed a denial thereof. (Ord. 417 § 13(C), 1985; Ord. 271 § 3, 1966)
