HB 2618 Arizona House · 56th Legislature - Second Regular Session

spirituous liquor; DHS; inspection; exemption

This bill amends the powers and duties of the Arizona Department of Health Services director, specifically expanding authority to inspect premises and vehicles for health violations. It allows the director to enter a wider range of locations, including restaurants and factories, to enforce health laws and requires public hearings before leasing state hospital property to third parties. Additionally, the legislation grants the director flexibility to delegate certain functions to local health agencies and establish emergency measures for controlling infectious diseases. The changes aim to streamline public health enforcement and improve the management of state hospital assets without altering the core structure of the department.
