NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS OF MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA:
SECTION 1. Section 11-1 of the Monroe County Code is hereby amended as follows:
Sec. 11-1. - Authority of Mayor to declare state of local emergency.
(a) For definitional purposes, a state of emergency shall exist whenever there
is an occurrence or threat thereof, whether accidental, natural or caused by
man, in war or in peace, that results in or may result in substantial injury or
harm to the population and/or substantial damage to or loss of property.
(b) The Mayor, Mayor Pro Tern, or the Sheriff shall have the authority to
declare a state of local emergency in the County, after consultation with the
emergency management director. The duration of a state of emergency is
limited to seven days;but may be extended in up to 7 day increments by the
Mayor or, in the absence of the Mayor, by the Mayor Pro Tern.
(c) Failure to comply and promptly obey a lawful order issued during a state of
emergency is unlawful and punishable as provided for in Section 1-8 of the
County Code.
(d) In the event of a declared emergency, Monroe County is authorized by law
to enter onto private land for removal of disaster-generated debris, in order
to protect the safety, health, and welfare of the public; eliminate immediate
threat of significant damage to improved public or private property; and/or
to ensure economic recovery of the affected community to the benefit of the
community-at-large.
SECTION 2. Subsection (c) of Section 11-2 of the Monroe County Code is hereby
amended as follows:
Sec. 11-2. -Disaster-generated debris removal.
(c) Removal of debris from private rights-of-way. Following issuance of a local
declaration of emergency in accordance with F.S. Ch. 252, Monroe County
Ordinance No. 028-1987, as may be amended from time to time, as codified
in Article I of Chapter 11 of the Monroe County Code, and/or any other
applicable law, the County shall have the right of entry and authority to
remove disaster-generated debris located within unincorporated Monroe
County on County-owned property, canals (whether privately or publicly
owned), County-owned roads and from private rights-of-way when such
debris is determined to pose an immediate threat to the health, safety and
Page 2 of 6
welfare of the community. Pursuant to the authority set forth in Article I of
this chapter, the emergency management director shall determine whether
there is an immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare
sufficient to warrant removal of said debris based on one or more of the
following factors:
(1) There is a significant likelihood that rescue vehicles will be
significantly hindered from rendering emergency services to
residential and commercial property should the debris be allowed to
remain in place absent County removal.
(2) The type of debris is such that it may reasonably cause disease,
illness, or sickness which could injure or adversely affect the health,
safety, or general welfare of those residing and working in the area
if it is allowed to remain.
(3) The clearing is necessary to effectuate orderly and expeditious
restoration of County-wide utility services including,but not limited
to, water, sewer, power and telecommunications.
(4) The debris prevents garbage collection thereby creating a public
health and safety hazard.
(5) The debris inhibits access to school buses and mass transit thereby
interrupting recovery and normalization post-disaster.
(6) The debris becomes a fire hazard which is susceptible to igniting
and causing damage to property and risking the safety of the public.
(7) The debris causes obstruction to mail boxes restricting the public's
access to send and receive important documents.
(8) The debris is likely to harbor vermin and reptiles that are potentially
poisonous.
(9) The debris contains contaminants which have a reasonable
likelihood of leeching into the soil and/or aquifer of the county.
(10) The debris has a substantial negative impact in preventing or
adversely affecting emergency repairs to buildings and/or property.
(11) The debris presents a reasonable danger of being transported by
wind and/or water into the surrounding areas of the County and
thereby increasing the cost of recovery and removal.
(12) The debris poses a significant likelihood of, if left over time,
producing mold which would be injurious to public health.
(13) The presence of the debris significantly adversely impacts the
County's recovery efforts.
(14) The debris significantly interferes with drainage or water runoff, so
as to be a significant hazard in the event of significant rainfall.
Page 3 of 6
(15) The sheer volume of the debris is such that it is impractical and
unreasonable to remove in an orderly and efficient manner absent
action by the County.
(16) The type, extent and nature of the debris is such that it would cause
much greater damage if the debris was not removed immediately.
(17) The debris in the canals, including submerged or partially
submerged vessels and other debris, is rendering the canals
impassible or extremely dangerous to vessels,preventing movement
down the canals by first responders as well as citizens in the area.
[The remainder of Section 11-2 shall remain unchanged.]
SECTION 3. Section 11-3 of the Monroe County Code is hereby created to read as follows:
Sec. 11-3. - Emergency Management Director
