The hearing will be held in Room 318 of 1313 Sherman Street, Denver, Colorado, <br />bey nning at 9:00 a.m. or as soon thereafrer as the matter can be considered, and you will have the <br />oppomtnity to be represented and heazd. <br />If the Boazd finds a violation at this hearing, it may issue a cease, and desist order, assess a civil penalty in <br />the amount of 100.00 to $1,000.00 for each day of violation and may order the permit be suspended, <br />modified or revoked. If you have evidence indicating that the possible violations noted above do not exist <br />or have been corrected, please provide it to us as soon as possible or bring it to the hearing. <br />If you have any questions, please contact James Stevens at (303) 866-3898. <br />Sincerely, <br />~(/ - ~ / , <br />J /y..~ . <br />Ivlichael B.
