Summary
Health code violations. Requires a local health officer to have information establishing probable cause of a public health law or rule violation at a location before a court may issue certain orders concerning the property. (Current law requires reliable information.) Requires a health officer's order of abatement to include the name of the person making the complaint and requires the health officer to report to the county prosecutor certain information concerning a person who provided false information. Requires a health officer to provide information concerning a person who made a false report concerning a communicable disease to the person against whom a false report was made. States that a dwelling is unfit for human habitation when the dwelling places a person's health or life in danger. (Current law states that the dwelling is unfit if it is dangerous or detrimental to life or health.) Requires a health officer to provide notice concerning an unfit dwelling and provide a reasonable amount of time to comply with the notice, and removes language providing that each day the dwelling remains unfit is a separate offense. Specifies that a landlord is not responsible for a health code violation by a tenant.
