The director shall deny a work permit for any of the conditions set out in subsection (c)(2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7) or (8) of Section 6.140.085 as reported by the metropolitan police department after investigation.

(f)

The conviction or plea of nolo contendere of any crime listed in subsection (c)(4) of Section 6.140.085 or failure to comply with all conditions of Sections 6.140.130 and 6.140.140 by the holder of a work permit may be grounds for suspension or revocation of an outcall promoter's license or work permit by the licensing board or director pursuant to procedures set out in Section 8.08.170 or 8.24.060.

(g)

The outcall promoter shall keep a current list of all outcall entertainers whom it refers at the licensed business location.

(h)

Director may issue a ninety-day temporary work permit pending complete investigation, if available evidence does not support the immediate granting or denial of a permanent card. No person required to obtain a work permit pursuant to this chapter shall be licensed or work as an outcall promoter without either a temporary or permanent work permit. The temporary work permit may be extended only once without the consent of the licensing board.

(i)

An applicant whose permit has been denied by the director may appeal the decision within ten days of the denial to the liquor and gaming licensing board by written notification to the director who shall place it before the liquor and gaming licensing board at its next regularly scheduled meeting subject to the state open meeting law. The liquor and gaming licensing board shall hear the appeal by examination of:

(1)

The verified application submitted by applicant;

(2)

The applicant's criminal history and conditions set forth above in subsections (d) and (e) of this section.

(j)

The board shall sustain the director's denial or grant the permit based on the evidence presented. The board shall grant a restricted or conditional permit if in its discretion the facts presented merit such permit. In the event that the permit is denied, the applicant may file or cause to be filed in the State Court a petition for writ of review of the denial of the license as provided by NRS 34.010 through 34.140.
