The city council finds and states its intent as follows: Clandestine drug laboratory sites are increasing in number in Artesia and are a serious health threat to the community. Remediation and cleanup of the residually contaminated portions of clandestine drug laboratory sites is essential to assure the health, safety and welfare of the community. Property owners must share the responsibility for the clandestine drug laboratory sites on their property by bearing the initial costs of remediation and cleanup of such sites, subject to restitution as provided in this chapter. This chapter is timely and appropriate because current laws and city regulations are insufficient to address the aforementioned problems. The restrictions contained herein are neither overbroad nor vague and are narrowly tailored to serve a substantial government interest. (Ord. 745, 2-13-2007)
