Title 12174 · Code of Ordinances

Sec. 250.1304. - Intent.

Citation: Jacksonville, FL Code of Ordinances § 250.1304.

Section: 250.1304.

The Council's intent in adopting this Part is to broadly prohibit the possession or use of simulated gambling devices not authorized for legal use under Florida law, including any related activity or behavior which can be reasonably construed to be the use of simulated gambling devices. Further, the Council in prohibiting simulated gambling devices in no way intends to locally approve the use of actual slot machines, other forms of casino gambling or other types of gambling devices. In addition, this prohibition is aimed directly at devices that simulate gambling activity, regardless of whether the devices or the simulations in and of themselves can be said to constitute gambling as that term may be defined elsewhere.
