Who may the director of public safety investigate for licensure or registration requirements?

The director of public safety has the authority to investigate any applicant for a class A, B, or C license. This includes individuals or entities seeking to become licensed security providers in various capacities. The rationale behind this is to ensure that all potential licensees meet the required standards of competence and integrity as set forth by the regulations governing the security industry. By investigating all applicants, the director can ascertain that they comply with the necessary legal and professional standards before being granted a license. This thorough vetting process is crucial for maintaining a reputable and capable security service industry, as it helps prevent those unqualified or with unsuitable backgrounds from obtaining licenses that would allow them to operate in sensitive security roles.
