Under New Britain Code of Ordinances ch. 13, art. II, div. 9 § 13-195, when an application for a rooming house operating permit is denied, the applicant has the right to request a formal hearing before the relevant department. The hearing process follows the procedures set out in sections 13-55 through 13-57 of the same code. This provision ensures that a denial is not necessarily final and that a review mechanism exists within the regulatory framework.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and prospective operators of rooming houses in New Britain should be aware that under § 13-195, a permit denial triggers a right to an administrative hearing rather than an immediate dead end. A compliant operator generally keeps records of all permit applications and any denial notices, as these documents are relevant to initiating the hearing process outlined in sections 13-55 through 13-57. Understanding the procedural steps in those referenced sections is part of navigating the rooming house permitting process.
