(3) The applicant affirmatively refuses to submit documents requested by the board to conduct the application investigation.
(4) The applicant accrues or is involved in an administrative violation committed while operating under a temporary license.
(5) The investigator is unable to determine the true party of interest.
(6) The applicant fails to meet the basic requirements of the license.
(7) An objection is received from a privately or publicly funded elementary or secondary school within five hundred feet of the proposed location.
(8) Violation history of the applicant is found to be sufficient to raise the application to threshold decision.
(9) Upon denial of the permanent license, the temporary license will be immediately revoked.
