Sec. 518.322. - Determination of unsafe for use classification.

(a) The determination that a property is unsafe for use applies to any property that is known to have been used as an illegal drug manufacturing site, or for which there are reasonable grounds to believe that the property has been used as an illegal drug manufacturing site. (b) Any owner of a property that was an illegal drug manufacturing site may obtain a Certificate of Fitness by following all the procedures and meeting all the criteria of these rules. (c) When the Division has made a determination that a property is unsafe for use, it shall proceed as follows: (1) Notify the owner or agent of the affected property by personal service or by certified mail sent within three working days of the determination. Proof of such mailing shall be considered service. Proof of actual delivery is not required. Where the owner of record or the title or certificate holder is not listed in public records or cannot be reasonably notified, service of notice on the registered agent or other designated agent or posting on the affected property is sufficient; (2) Notify the Building Inspection Division, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office and/or other affected agencies; and (3) Post a standard warning notice provided by the Division at all entrances to the contaminated property at the time of the determination. Such notice(s) shall be displayed continuously until a Certificate of Fitness has been issued by the Division and shall specifically state that unauthorized entry or physical presence in the contaminated structure or property may result in such individual's physical arrest and criminal prosecution pursuant to Section 518.136 . (d) The notice required in subsection (c)(1) of this Section shall include a statement that the owner may obtain a hearing as specified in Section 518.303 . (Ord. 2006-590-E, § 4)
