§ 28-1. Rules and regulations for conduct within Baker County parks.

(a)

Generally. Rules and regulations for all of Baker County's parks shall be established by Administrative Policy 2017-01, and any subsequent amendment approved by a majority vote of the board of county commissioners.

(b)

Enforcement.

(1)

Upon observing a violation of this section, a code enforcement officer or any law enforcement officer with jurisdiction over the park shall:

a.

Issue a warning citation to the person or vehicle violating the ordinance, providing the citation states the date and time of issuance, the name and address of the violator, the date of the violation, the nature of the offense, the name of the officer issuing the citation, and a reasonable time period within which the violator must correct the violation;

b.

If, upon personal investigation, an officer finds that the violator has not corrected the violation within the time period, the officer may issue a citation, not to exceed $500.00, to the violator. An officer does not have to provide the violator with a reasonable time period to correct the violation prior to issuing a citation and may immediately issue a citation if the issuing officer has reason to believe that the violation presents a serious threat to the public health, safety, or welfare, or if the violation is irreparable or irreversible in nature.

(2)

Any person who willfully refuses to sign and accept a citation issued by a code enforcement officer or law enforcement officer shall be guilty of a misdemeanor of the second degree, punishable as provided in F.S. § 775.082 or 775.083.
