City of Miami Beach: Representation of an Authority Having Jurisdiction

摘要

The City of Miami Beach is one of five jurisdictions delegated by the State of Florida to administer and enforce regulations governing the design, construction, installation, alteration, inspection and testing of more than 2,000 City elevators. Utilizing standardized forms and reports, and demonstrating manpower flexibility with an inspection program that employs both private and City inspectors, costs have been controlled and program efficiency has been strengthened. This paper illustrates the structure of an "Authority Having Jurisdiction", including: State's delegation of authority, organization charts, inspection reports and forms, responsibilities of private and City inspectors, and the local ordinance process.
