The county public works director or his/her designee is authorized to issue a replacement pass or card upon satisfactory proof of bona fide loss, theft, or destruction. (Ord. 2002-028).

10.36.040 Replacement – Application – Affidavit required.

Before a duplicate or replacement pass or card shall be issued, the county public works director shall be presented with an affidavit of the owner of the missing pass or card setting forth the facts supporting his application for issuance of a replacement. The affidavit may provide for authority for the county public works director to have the original pass or card cancelled and for impounding of the original pass or card whenever such pass or card is presented for ferry passage. (Ord. 2002-028).

10.36.050 Replacement – Application – Denied when.

The county public works director is authorized to examine the application, and should his examination result in a determination that the requirements of this chapter have been met, then he may issue a replacement pass or card good only for the unexpired term of the lost, stolen, or destroyed pass or card; but should he find that the grounds stated in the affidavit fail to support the alleged bona fide loss, theft, or destruction of the original pass or card, or are insufficient to find (1) probable cause to believe that the pass or card was in fact lost, or (2) was in all probability stolen, or (3) was in fact destroyed, then he shall deny the application and shall not issue the requested duplicate pass or card. In the event the application is denied, the county public works director shall make written findings setting forth the reasons why he has denied the application. (Ord. 2002-028).

(Ord. 2002-028).
