The DCRA Director shall create a process by which a vending business may voluntarily put its Vending Business License on hold and subsequently retrieve it from hold status to avoid suspension or revocation of a Vending Site Permit.
A Vending Business License may be placed on hold and in the possession of the DCRA Director during such times that the vending business is not in operation for seasonal purposes or emergent issues; provided, that the holder of the Vending Business License is in compliance with the Clean Hands Certification.
Placement of a Vending Business License and/or Vending Site Permit on hold pursuant to this section shall not stay the expiration date of either the license or site permit and, to remain valid, it must be renewed on or before its expiration date, pursuant to § 506.
A vendor, or any employee or independent contractor employed by the vendor, who vends any products, food, merchandise, or services while his or her Vending Business License is placed on hold shall be subject to the revocation of his or her Vending Business License.
