(a) Hearings before the Finance Director pursuant to provisions in this Article shall be held pursuant to the ordinance codified herein and rules and regulations promulgated by the Finance Director. Any subpoena issued pursuant to this Article may be enforced by the Municipal Judge pursuant to Section 13-10-112(2), C.R.S. The fees of witnesses for attendance at hearings shall be the same as the fees of witnesses before the District Court, such fees to be paid when the witness is excused from further attendance. When the witness is subpoenaed by the Finance Director, such fees shall be paid in the same manner as other expenses under the terms of this Article. When a witness is subpoenaed by any party to such proceeding, the Finance Director may require that the cost of service of the subpoena and the fee of the witness be borne by the party at whose insistence the witness is summoned. In such case, the Finance Director, at his or her discretion, may require a deposit to cover the cost of such service and witness fees. A subpoena issued as aforesaid shall be served in the same manner as a subpoena issued by a court of record.

(b) The Municipal Judge, upon the application of the Finance Director, may compel the attendance of witnesses, the production of books, papers, records or memoranda and the giving of testimony before the Finance Director or duly authorized hearing officers, by an action for contempt, or otherwise, in the same manner as production of evidence may be compelled before the court.
