"Your Committee on Health to who~ was referred for study the City's rodent control ordinance No. 8802 begs to report as follows: Your committee has spent considerable time during the past few months i studying the provisions of Ordinance No. 8802, the enforcement of the rules and regulations contained in the ordinance and the progress of the rodent proofing program to, date. The committee has met and conferred with the enforcing officers, i has made inspections of various locations where the enforcement of ordinance pro- visions has been disputed and conducted a public hearing to obtain the viewpoint and comment of affected property owners and restaurant operators. I I I ~ As the result of such conferences and hearing, the committee i'two minor amendments to Ordinance No. 8802 for clarification purposes. i recommendations are as follows: I recommends The Iv- I, 1. That Section One of the ordinance be amended to clarify the word I "building" to the end tha t rodent proofing requirements apply only to those parts ! l or sections of buildings occupied by firms keeping, storing or handling food. ' I' 2. That Section 5 of Ordinance No. 8802 referring to residence pro- f perties be deleted entirely from the Ordinance. The committee finds .'that the : original intent of this section with reference to rodent control is fully covered 1 by provisions of the recently enacted Garbage Ordinance No. 8970. With reference to the enforcement of Ordinance No. 8802, we submit the following recommendations which are based upon our investigation~ 1. That enforcement officers be directed to exercise reason and judg- i ment in seeking conformity to the minimum requirements of Ordinance #8802. , 2. That in all instances where orders are issued for rodent proofing : such orders shall be in writing setting forth in detail the minimum rat-proofing i requirements for the premises in question and that a copy of such notices shall : be filed with the office of the City Manager. 3. That restaurant licenses for 1947 be granted by the Health Authori- I ties where all other sanitation provisions are being met, such licenses to be "subject to revocation for the' failure or refusal of responsible parties to comply : with the minimum rat-proofing requirements wi thin a reasonable period of time.' 4. In connection with restaurant operations, that non-compliance to ;'minimwn requirements be reflected in grading as provided in restaurant inspection ,Ordinance No. 8861.
