Bellevue, Neb., Code of Ordinances ch. 15 (2026) § 15-175
HEARING WHEN DENIED
Operative Text
Any person whose application for a permit to operate a rooming house, second class dwelling, hotel or nursing home has been denied may request and shall be granted a hearing on the matter before the Permits and Inspections Department under the procedure provided by section 15-23. (Code 1964, § 12A-24)
Section 15-175 of Bellevue, Nebraska's Code of Ordinances establishes that any applicant who is denied a permit to operate a rooming house, second-class dwelling, hotel, or nursing home has a right to a formal hearing. The hearing is conducted by the Permits and Inspections Department and follows the procedural rules set out in section 15-23. This provision ensures that a denial is not necessarily final and that applicants have a structured avenue to contest the decision.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 15-175, operators or prospective operators of rooming houses, second-class dwellings, hotels, or nursing homes who receive a permit denial are entitled to request a hearing before the Permits and Inspections Department. A compliant operator generally keeps records of any denial notice and submits a timely hearing request in accordance with the procedures outlined in section 15-23. Familiarity with those procedural requirements helps ensure the hearing right is preserved.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 15-175 is primarily directed at permit applicants rather than tenants, but residents of rooming houses, second-class dwellings, hotels, or nursing homes may have an interest in whether a facility's permit has been denied or is under review. If a permit denial affects a place where someone lives, that person may wish to monitor the hearing process conducted by the Permits and Inspections Department under section 15-23. Tenant-rights organizations in the Bellevue area can help residents understand how permit proceedings may relate to their housing situation.
