This Chapter is enacted with the intention of supplementing provisions of the Health and Safety Code and Administrative Code of the State of California concerning the control of venereal disease by local health officers and any provision hereof which might conflict with such State Codes shall be interpreted to comply with and as subordinate to such State Codes. The provisions hereof have been enacted after consultation with and the approval of the Director of Public Health of the County of San Bernardino. The need of and rational basis for the ordinance have been established and based upon statistical evidence provided by the San Bernardino County Department of Public Health and deductions therefrom, studies and programs in Colorado Springs and Denver, Colorado, and elsewhere, and the successful results of a similar experimental program in operation since 1976 under the jurisdiction of the Department of Public Health of the County of Monterey with the active assistance of the Department of Health Services, State of California.
