The mayor shall keep a public record of all the tenement-house licenses issued under the provisions of this act. The original applications shall be preserved for a period of one year, and shall be open to examination by the public.

The mayor shall have the power to revoke any license upon the request of the department of public health and charities, or upon his own motion if the person to whom the license was granted has violated any of the provisions of this act, or of the rules and regulations of the said department pertaining to tenement-houses, or has failed at any time within the term of the license to maintain his tenement-house in the condition required by this act or by the rules and regulations of the said department pertaining to tenement-houses.

Any person whose application for a license has been refused, or whose license has been revoked, shall have the right to appeal, within fifteen days, from the decision of the mayor, to the court of common pleas of the proper county, and such court shall make such order as right and justice may require: Provided, however, That such appeal shall not operate to supersede any decision of the mayor, pending the entry of a final order by said court, unless said appeal is directed to operate as a supersedeas by said court, at a preliminary hearing to be held at the time and in the manner provided by its rules for applications for preliminary injunctions.
