18    that  the  program  is  not  being  conducted  in  a   manner
19    consistent  with existing ordinances, the Director shall give
20    written notice of such findings to the  chief  administrative
21    officer   of   the   unit  of  local  government,  and  after
22    administrative hearing as provided in this Act,  all  persons
23    then  operating  under such unit of local government shall be
24    immediately  subject  to  the  State   licensure,   fee   and
25    inspection program.
