[HISTORY: Derived from Ch. XV of the 1964 Code of Ordinances of the
City of of Monessen. Amendments noted where applicable.]
It shall be unlawful for any milk dealer engaged in bottling milk for
sale in the City of Monessen to sell or deliver any milk in the City of Monessen
without first obtaining from the Health Officer of the city a certificate
that the fee for inspecting and testing such milk has been paid for the current
year.

Editor's Note: See also 31 P.S. § 520-1 et seq., specifically
31 P.S. § 660b, which provides that statutory provisions are established
to provide uniform requirements and that no municipality shall adopt requirements
other than those, although it appears from the Notes of Decision that local
governing bodies are not prohibited from promulgating regulations which are
at least as restrictive as state regulations.
The cost or fee for such inspection is hereby fixed for each calendar
year for every farmer and for each calendar year for each milk processor or
distributor as set from time to time by resolution of the City Council.
Any person, firm or corporation selling or delivering milk in the City
of Monessen in violation of this chapter shall, upon conviction thereof in
a summary proceeding before any District Justice having jurisdiction of such
offense, be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than $300 or to undergo imprisonment
not exceeding 90 days, or both. Each day on which any such violation shall
be committed or shall continue shall constitute a separate offense or violation.
