§ 101405 County Health Officer Authority

This law says that once a contract is signed, the county health officer and their helpers get the same authority in the city that city health officers normally have.

Key Takeaways

•The rule only kicks in after a contract is properly signed.
•County health officers and their deputies get the same powers as city health officers inside the city.
•The powers include things like inspections, issuing health orders, and enforcing health laws.

Example

A company signs a contract to open a new fast‑food restaurant in the city.

Because the contract is in place, the county health officer and their deputies can inspect the kitchen, enforce health rules, and do anything a city health officer could do, even though they work for the county.

Whenever a contract has been duly entered into, the county health officer and his or her deputies shall exercise the same powers and duties in the city as are conferred upon city health officers by law. (Amended by Stats. 1996, Ch. 1023, Sec. 303. Effective September 29, 1996.)
