   (a)   No Owner or other person shall enter or be present in or on any building or premises that has been posted with notice identifying the said building or premises to be a public nuisance, without first obtaining authorization in writing from the Review Board Director and having such written authorization on his/her person at the time.
   (b)   It shall be an affirmative defense to a violation of this Section that the person was the Owner, or was authorized by the Owner to be present on the said premises, and that one of the persons present had the required written authorization on his/her person at the time.
   (c)   The officers, agents, and employees of the City, State, or Federal government, or any political subdivision, or of any public utility, shall be exempt from the requirements of this Section while in the course of their official duties.
   (d)   The issuance of an authorization provided herein shall not be construed to create a privilege, as that term is used in Ohio R.C. 2911.21 or Moraine Codified Ordinance Section 541.05, nor shall this Section be deemed to have any affect whatsoever on the interpretations or application of those Sections.
