Sec. 380.112. - Renewal of a certificate.

(a) An application for renewal of the certificate of public convenience and necessity must be submitted six months prior to the expiration of the certificate. A facility may continue to operate beyond its five-year certificate period if a timely submittal of a renewal application was made and the applicant has been responsive to requests for additional information for the application. The renewal application shall be completed on a form as designated by the Director. The applicant shall not be required to resubmit information that has not changed since the issuance of the previous certificate/application for the facility but affirmation of the static conditions shall be stated in writing. The Director shall recommend conditions for the renewal certificate and such requirements shall be designed to provide assurances that the continued operation of the facility will pose no significant threat to the public health or the environment. (b) The renewal of all certificates issued under this Part not proposing or requiring changes to the Specific Conditions of the facility require Director approval only and are discretionary. There shall be no appeal from any decision of the Director concerning the renewal of a certificate. In lieu of any appeal, an applicant may request a renewal of a certificate by following the procedures described in Sections 380.104 through 380.106 . (c) Renewal certificates for facilities that are proposing changes to the Specific Conditions of the facility, except those Specific Conditions listed in Section 380.111 which can be administratively modified, require Council approval, must follow the procedures listed in Section 380.104 through 380.106 of this Part, and are discretionary. (d) Renewal certificates for all facilities which have received more than two formal payable written citations during their prior certificate term require Council approval, must follow the procedures listed in Section 380.104 through 380.106 of this Part, and are discretionary. (e) An application processing fee of $900 for applicants other than governmental bodies shall accompany each renewal application. (f) Prior to renewal application approval, an applicant must have corrected any and all violations to this Part and must have paid any and all fees, taxes and liens due to the City.
