If the commission finds that the applicant for a license for a billiard room or billiard
club is not of good moral character or is an unfit person to manage or conduct such
establishment, or that by reason of the place where such establishment is to be located
the conducting or carrying on thereof would be detrimental to the public health, the
public order or the public morals, or any other ground of denial exists, it shall
notify the tax collector not to issue the license until instructed to do so by it
or by the license appeals board, and shall notify, in writing, the applicant of its
action.
