§ 107175 Department Enforcement Authority

This law tells the department that it must make sure this article is followed.

Key Takeaways

  • •The department is required to act, not just watch.
  • •Enforcing means checking that people follow the rule and taking action if they don’t.
  • •The law itself doesn’t say what the rule is—just that the department must enforce whatever the article says.

Example

The city’s building department has a rule that all new houses must have fire alarms. The department has to check houses and make sure the rule is being obeyed.

Because the law says the department must enforce the article, the building department will go out, inspect homes, and require owners to install fire alarms if they don’t have them.
