Sec. 81.005.  CANCELLATION OR SUSPENSION OF PERMIT OR LICENSE.  (a)  The commission or administrator may suspend for not more than 60 days or cancel a permit or license if the commission or administrator finds, after notice and hearing, that the permit or license holder used or allowed others to use the permitted or licensed premises in a manner that constitutes a common nuisance.
(b)  If the commission or administrator receives information from an official under Section 81.003, the commission or administrator shall consider the information and, if the commission or administrator finds the information sufficient to indicate that cancellation or suspension under Subsection (a) may be appropriate, provide notice and hold a hearing under that subsection to determine whether to suspend or cancel the permit or license.
(c)  Notwithstanding Section 11.64, the commission or administrator may not give a permit or license holder the opportunity to pay a civil penalty rather than have the permit or license suspended.
