2006 New York Code - Renewal, Suspension And Revocation Of Licenses.

 
    §  20-504  Renewal,  suspension  and revocation of licenses. After due
  notice and opportunity to be heard, the commissioner may refuse to renew
  any license required under this subchapter and may suspend or revoke any
  such license upon the occurrence of any one or  more  of  the  following
  conditions:
    a.  the  person  holding a tow truck operator's license, or the person
  holding a license to engage in towing or where applicable its  officers,
  principals,  directors,  employees, or stockholders owning more than ten
  percent of the outstanding stock of the corporation have been  found  by
  the  commissioner  to have violated any provisions of this subchapter or
  any rule promulgated thereunder; or
    b. the person holding a tow truck operator's license,  or  the  person
  holding  a license to engage in towing or where applicable its officers,
  principals, directors, employees, or stockholders owning more  than  ten
  percent  of  the outstanding stock of the corporation were found to have
  operated a tow truck in a  grossly  negligent  manner  or  in  a  manner
  showing  a reckless disregard for life or property. For purposes of this
  subdivision, a finding that any  such  person  violated  section  eleven
  hundred  ninety-two  of the vehicle and traffic law in the course of the
  operation of a tow truck shall be deemed gross negligence; or
    c. the person holding a tow truck operator's license,  or  the  person
  holding  a license to engage in towing or where applicable its officers,
  principals, directors or stockholders owning more than  ten  percent  of
  the  outstanding  stock  of  the  corporation have made a material false
  statement or concealed a material fact in connection with the filing  of
  any  application pursuant to this subchapter or have engaged in fraud or
  misrepresentation in connection with the rendering of  services;  or  d.
  the person holding a tow truck operator's license, or the person holding
  a  license  to  engage  in  towing  or  where  applicable  its officers,
  principals, directors or stockholders owning more than  ten  percent  of
  the  outstanding stock of the corporation have not paid, within the time
  permitted by law, any fine, penalty or judgment duly imposed pursuant to
  the provisions of this subchapter or any rule or regulation  promulgated
  hereunder  or duly imposed in connection with or arising from the use or
  operation of a tow truck or the occupation of the premises on which  the
  licensed business is conducted; or
    e.  the  person  holding a tow truck operator's license, or the person
  holding a license to engage in towing or where  applicable  any  of  its
  officers,  principals,  directors  or  stockholders owning more than ten
  percent of the outstanding stock of the corporation has  been  convicted
  of  a  crime  which,  in  the judgment of the commissioner, has a direct
  relationship to such person's fitness or ability to perform any  of  the
  activities  for which a license is required under this subchapter or has
  been convicted of any other crime  which,  in  accordance  with  article
  twenty-three-a  of the correction law, would provide a justification for
  the commissioner to refuse to renew,  or  to  suspend  or  revoke,  such
  license; or
    f.  the  person  holding a tow truck operator's license, or the person
  holding a license to engage in towing has failed to maintain any of  the
  conditions   for  issuance  of  such  license  as  provided  under  this
  subchapter or any rule or regulation promulgated hereunder.
