Revocation, suspension, denial, or non -renewal of a rental dwelling license shall not <br />excuse the owner from compliance with all terms of this article for as long as any units in <br />the facility are occupied. <br />b. Failure to comply with all terms of this article during the term of revocation, suspension, <br />denial, or non -renewal is a misdemeanor and grounds for extension of the term of such <br />revocation or suspension or continuation of non -renewal, or for a decision not to reinstate <br />the license, notwithstanding any limitations on the period of suspension, revocation, denial <br />or non -renewal specified in the city council's written decision. <br />(b) Suspension. <br />(1) The city council may suspend a rental dwelling license under the following circumstances: <br />a.
