The notice shall state:
(1) That the director has determined that the building fails to comply with the licensing standards for rental dwellings in section 244.1910 and section 244.1920 , that the licensee has failed to take appropriate action following conduct by tenants and/or their guests on the licensed premises under section 244.2020 , or that the licensee has failed to submit a written management plan that satisfies the requirements set forth in 244.2020 (d).
(2) The specific reasons why the building fails to meet licensing standards, including copies of applicable inspection reports, or notices sent to licensee of conduct on licensed premises.
(3) That the director has referred the matter to the city council with a recommendation to deny, not renew, revoke, or suspend the license or provisional license.
(4) That the city council will deny, refuse to renew, revoke, or suspend the license or provisional license unless the owner appeals the determination within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the notice, in the manner provided in section 244.1960 .
(5) That after denial, nonrenewal, revocation or suspension, the dwelling or the affected dwelling units therein must be vacated, and shall not be reoccupied until all violations are corrected and a license is granted by the city council, (except where an extension of time has been granted by the director of inspections due to weather). Further, no license will be granted by the city council until an approved plan to control conduct on premises has been presented and accepted by the city council if the denial, non-renewal, revocation or suspension was under section 244.2020 .
(6) The notice shall describe how an appeal may be filed under section 244.1960 .
(7) The director shall cause a notice to tenants to be mailed or delivered to each licensed dwelling unit and prominently posted on the building.

(b) Lapsed licenses. If a license lapses, or is surrendered, withdrawn, terminated, or otherwise becomes ineffective, the director may proceed, pursuant to subdivision (a), with an action to deny, non-renew, revoke or suspend if the action was commenced prior any lapse, surrender, withdraw, termination or other loss of license.
(c) Any action taken under this section shall be instituted against the rental dwelling license held by the owner(s), licensee and the person designated by the owner as the person responsible for the maintenance and management of the licensed property.
