(6) In addition to the monetary fines and penalties described above, any person
        who violates any of the provisions of subsections (g), (h) or (i) of this
        ordinance shall be subject to the suspension or revocation of any permit
        issued under authority of those subsections by the board of health as further
        provided herein.
    (7) Refusal to cooperate with inspections pursuant to this ordinance shall result
        in the suspension of the permit for up to thirty consecutive business days.
    (8) In addition to the fines and penalties set forth above, any permit holder who
        engages in the sale or distribution of tobacco products while his or her permit
        is suspended or revoked shall be subject to the suspension or revocation of all
        board of health issued permits for thirty consecutive business days.
    (9) The director shall provide notice of the intent of the board of health to suspend
        or revoke any permit, which notice shall contain the reasons therefor together
        with documentation of the alleged violations. The notice shall establish a time
        and date for a hearing which date shall be no earlier than seven days after the
        date of said notice. The hearing shall be conducted by the board of health, or
        its designee, as the board in its sole discretion may determine. The alleged
        violator, permit holder or its business agent and legal counsel shall have an
        opportunity to be heard at such hearing. The alleged violator or permit holder
        shall be notified of the decision and the reasons therefore in writing. For
        purposes of any such suspension or revocation, the board of health, or its
        designee, shall make the determination notwithstanding any separate criminal
        or non-criminal proceedings brought in court hereunder or under the General
        Laws for the same offense. All tobacco products shall be removed immediately
        from the retail establishment upon suspension or revocation of any tobacco
        sales permit. Failure to remove all tobacco products shall constitute a separate
        violation of this ordinance with each day constituting a separate offense
        punishable by a fine or penalty of $300 or by injunctive relief. § 4. Use of Gasoline Motors on Patch Reservoir
