Whenever the Health Officer finds that the public safety will not permit
delay, he may exercise one or more of the following powers without having
to resort to legal proceedings and without the necessity of giving notice
or holding any hearing which would otherwise be required under any provision
of this Code:
A.
Power to prevent the sale of food. The Health Officer
may prohibit the importation into the Borough or sale of any food, drink or
other item intended for human consumption or use from a source suspected of
being infected, contaminated, unsanitary, unhealthy or dangerous.
B.
Power to seize and destroy unwholesome food. The Health
Officer may order the seizure and destruction of any food, drink or other
item intended for human consumption which is unwholesome or dangerous or likely
to cause sickness or injury to the persons who consume it.
