Any person whose application for a license is denied shall be entitled to a hearing before the board if he or she submits a written request for a hearing to the board. The board shall fix a time and place for the hearing and shall cause a written copy of the reason for denial of the license, together with a notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing to be served on the applicant requesting the hearing. Following the investigative process, the board may file formal charges against the licensee. Such formal complaint shall, at a minimum, inform the licensee of the facts which are the basis of the charge and which are specific enough to enable the licensee to defend against the charges. Each licensee whose conduct is the subject of a formal charge which seeks to impose disciplinary action against the licensee shall be served notice of the formal charge at least thirty (30) days before the date of the hearing, which hearing shall be presided over by the board or the board’s designee. Service shall be considered to have been given if the notice was personally served on the licensee or applicant or if the notice was sent by certified United States mail to the licensee or applicant to the licensee’s or applicant’s last known address as listed of record with the board. The board or its designee shall hear evidence produced in support of the formal charges and contrary evidence produced by the licensee. At the conclusion of the hearing, the board shall issue an order. All proceedings pursuant to this section are matters of public record and shall be preserved pursuant to state law.
