Cypress Municipal Code § 15-67 Renewal

Any special permit issued under this article which has not been previously revoked may be renewed by filing a request for renewal and a fee as prescribed in the master fee schedule, which may be updated by resolution from time to time. The director of finance shall forward a copy of such request to the city manager and to the chief of police for their recommendations, which shall be returned to the director of finance within 15 days.

If, in the judgment of both the city manager and the chief of police, the continued operation of the business under the terms and conditions of the existing special permit will comport with the peace, health, safety, convenience, good morals and general welfare of the public and all land use regulations and other applicable municipal ordinances and regulations thereunder have been complied with, the director of finance shall reissue the special permit for an additional period of one year.

If the request for renewal is filed later than 15 days prior to the date of expiration or if either the city manager or the chief of police reports that in his or her judgment the continued operation of business under the terms and conditions of the existing special permit will not comport with the peace, health, safety, convenience, good morals and general welfare of the public, the director of finance shall forward the request for renewal together with the aforementioned reports to the city council, whereupon it shall be treated as if it were an original application under the provisions of this article.
