Such appeal process shall include an opportunity for a hearing before the board of directors of the entity holding the lease or management agreement with the city.

Violation of the rules and regulations of a cultural market shall be cause for removal of a vendor from the cultural market's blanket license or suspension and/or revocation of the vendor's transient merchant license, if applicable.
