Currently, Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, <br />Duval, Pinellas and Hillsborough counties are so designated. The <br />law allows any other county to become a part of the inspection <br />program by a majority vote of its governing body requesting the <br />Department to provide for inspection in that county. In order <br />for a county to participate in this program the Department must <br />receive a copy of the county ordinance requesting inclusion in <br />the inspection program no later than January 10, 1989. The <br />Department has determined that this deadline is necessary in <br />order to complete the contracting process and implement the <br />program by 1990. Therefore, I am asking you to determine whether <br />your county wishes to participate in this program and if it does <br />to forward a copy of the ordinance in time to be received by <br />January 10, 1989. I have enclosed a copy of a suggested model <br />ordinance for your consideration. <br />If you have any questions please call or write me. <br />Sincerely, <br />te <br />CHARLES J.

She noted that this just relates to <br />82 <br />
