Policy of city to rehabilitate alcoholics. It is hereby declared to be the policy of Salt Lake City that alcoholics, pathological users of intoxicants, and other persons who use intoxicating beverages to the extent that they cannot reason- ably control their use of intoxicating beverages shall be given treatment to affect their rehabilitation. "Sec. 19-6-2. Persons arrested for public intoxication may be proceeded against by civil suit to promote rehabilitation. Any person arrested for public intoxication or any other alcohol related offense constituting a violation of the ordinances of Salt Lake City may be proceeded against by civil suit, rather than criminal process if there is reason to believe that such person is an alcoholic, pathological user of intoxicants, or user of intoxicating beverages to such an extent that his life, health or economic functioning are being harmfully disrupted and that such person cannot reasonably control his use of intoxicating beverages. If after court hearing, a determination is made that such person meets the standard above specified, said person may be directed to undergo such a course of treatment as will reasonably promote his rehabilitation. 46 -2- "Sec. 19-6-3. Criteria for determining use of civil process to effect rehabilitation of alcoholics where arrest involved. Any person who has been arrested within the limits of Salt Lake City three or more times within twenty-four months for public intoxica- tion or other alcohol-related offense may be proceeded against by civil rather than criminal process and if the court determines after hearing that such person is an alcoholic, pathological user of intoxicating beverages or user of intoxicating beverages to such an extent that his life, health, or economic functioning are being harmfully disrupted and that such person cannot reasonably control his use of intoxicating beverages, such person may be required to undergo a course of treatment as will reasonably promote his rehabilitation. "Sec. 19-6-4. Civil proceeding to rehabilitate alcoholic available on complaint of any person where no arrest involved. Upon the complaint of any person to the city attorney of Salt Lake City that a person residing within the confines of Salt Lake City is an alcoholic, a pathological user of intoxicating beverages, or otherwise a user of intoxicating beverages to the extent that his life, health, or economic functioning are being harmfully disrupted and that such person cannot reasonably con- trol his use of intoxicating beverages, and if reasonable cause appears for such complaint the city attorney or his assistants shall proceed to have such person brought before the city court, and if after hearing it shall be found that such person complained against does, in fact, suffer from such a condition, such person shall be required to undergo such treatment as will reasonably promote his rehabilitation. "Sec. 19-6-5. Saving clause. If any portion of this ordinance is determined to be invalid, the remaining portions which are valid shall be deemed severable." SECTION 2. In the opinion of the Board of Commissioners of Salt Lake City, Utah, it is necessary to the peace, health and welfare of the inhabitants of Salt Lake City that this ordinance become effective immediately.
