must suspend or revoke any such license if, after hearing upon
notice, the City Council shall find the existence of any of the
grounds hereinabove enumerated for the denial of an application
for a promoter's license; provided, however, that such suspension

SECTION 2. Violations - Penalty. The violation of any
provision of this Article shall be punishable as provided in Section
1115 of the Munb ipal Code of the City of Costa Mesa.
SECTION 3. Validity. If any section, sub -section, sentence,
clause or phrase of this ordinance is held to be invalid for any
reason, such invalidity shall not affect the validity of any other
provision of this ordinance. The City Council of the City of Costa
Mesa declares that the provisions of this ordinance are separable
and that it would have passed this ordinance and each and every
section, sub -section, sentence, clause or phrase, irrespective of
the fact that any one or more of the same be declared invalid.
- 15 -
SECTION 4. Enactment - Ur enc . This ordinance is enacted
as an urgency ordinance. The facts constituting the urgency are as
follows: The City has no present ordinance regulating the solicita-
tion of contributions to charitable purposes. The rapid growth of the
City and the many new and additional solicitations of contributions
to charitable purposes being conducted in the City create a risk
that the charitable impulses of the people of the City may be taken
advantage of by solicitors who would collect funds under false
pretenses or would retain for themselves an undue percentage of what
they collected. The City Council believes that the City of Costa
Mesa owes a duty to protect the public from those who seek for one
purpose or another to obtain its money by solicitations of contribu-
tions to charitable purposes against the untrustworthy, the incompe-
tent, the irresponsible, or against unauthorized representation of
agency.
SECTION 5. This ordinance shall take effect immediately, and
within fifteen (15) days shall be published once in the GLOBE -HERALD
and PILOT, a newspaper of general circulation, printed and published
in the City of Costa Mesa, together with the names of the members of
the City Council voting for and against the same.
