Thirteenth St., as a result of the petition submitted to the Commission at the meeting of October 14, by the residents within said vicinity, protesting against the construction and operation of an abattoir at this location and requesting the Commission to revoke said permit. Thereupon Attorney Spencer submitted the following legal opinion: October 17,1946. Honorbale City Commission City of Sanford, Florida. Dear Sir's: I"""'" You have requested of me an opinion as to the legal status in which the City Cormniss ion now finds itself with reference to the passing and adoption of a,n ordinance permitting the operation of abattoirs within the City of Sanford and the issuance of a permit for the operation of an abattoir to Central Florida Quick Freeze and Locker Plant on 13th Street and Elm Avenue. You also desire my opinion as to the liability of the City to Central Florida Quick Freeze and locker Plant should you repeal said ordinance and revoke said permit after the expenditure by said concern of several thousands of dollars in installing its abattoir subsequent to the passing and adoption of your ordinance and the issuance of your permit. The first question to present itself is: IS THE CITY WITHIN ITS LEGAL RIGHTS TO PASS AND ADOPT AN ORDINANCE PEffi~ITTING THE OPERATION OF ABATTOIRS WITHIN THE CORPORATE LIMITSf The law seems to be well founded that a governing body of a municipality may pass and. adopt ordinances in this regard. ,...... /I A city may by ordinances exclude' the operation of slaughter houses within its municipal limits or from thickly populated portions of the city. Such ordinances have been uniformly sustained on accourlt of the offensive odors which arise from such establishments. In' this regard it has been ..held that a power conferred upon a city in its charter to ' regulate the erection, use and continuance of slaughterhouses' within the city includes the power o~ total prohibition within specified limits or localities. While i,t may be said tha t the question whether a slaughterhouse is or is not a public or common nuisance depends upon the circumstances of each particular case, the.power of municipal corporations to limit the existence of such houses to particular localities and to regulate such business or trade as a valid exercise of the police power, and in general exists as a means of preventing nuisances and of preserving the health and comfort of the public, . so long as the ordinances passed for such purpose contravene no constitution- al rights, and follow the general rules of law with respect to city ordinances in general. Regulatory ordinances may be made applicable to a slaughterhouse erected within the city limits before the adoption of such ordinance, without violating constitutional rights of the owner. Legislation of this kind is based on considerations of the health and comfort of the residents of the community. II 48..-fu.Juris. 4qO-461. IIWhile the business of slaughtering animals for food or the business of conducting and operating a slaughterhouse for that purpo.8'e is a legi- timate business, it is of such nature that, however well conducted, it is naturally repulsive and offensive to the senses, and one from which offensive odors and stenches almost invariably emanate. Moreover, if such business is improperly or negligently managed or conduct.Rn H. ,...... .' 383 384 MINUTES CITVCOMMISSION, SANFORD, FLORIDA, o.ctober 1$ at3: 00 P M 19 46 subject to police regulation by the state or by duly authorized subdivisions thereof, pursuant to the general principle of constitutional law giving the state the right under its police power to regulate any and all kinds of busi- ness for the protection of the public health, morals, or welfare, subject to restrictions of reasonableness of classification and of the means of regulation adopted. The legislature may properly prescribe the conditions under which Slaughterhouses may serve the public. And likewise, municipal corporations, when possessed of delegated powers in this re~pect and subject to constitutional limitations, may regulate slaughterhouses or abattoirs to the end that nuisances may be prevented and the health and comfort of the public preserved. Such regulations may be upheld as conditions or incidents of sanitary measures adopted for the protection 0 f public heal th against dangers incident to the slaughtering and marketing of meats under unsanitary conditions, or in the exercise of the police power to prevent nuisances, or upon the groum. that the business of slaughterhouses is so affected wlith the public interest as to subject it to regulation.1I 48 Am.Juris .459. Chapter 585.34,Florida Statutes Annotated provides: IIThat the State Livestock Sen itary Board has control over sla,ughtering of meat producing animals within the state of Florida and provides that any person so engaged shall make application to said board for a permit to transport and sell their products at any place within the limits of the state of Florida, and further provides that such permit may be revoked by the board at any time when the establishment issued such permit violates any of the regulations prescribed for efficient inspection and sanitation." Section 386.13, Florida Statutes Annotated provides: "Unclean and filthy slaughterhouses, rooms, buildings, or places where sheep, hogs, cattle , or other animals are slaughtered within any incorporated city or town or any unicorporated town or village of the State of Florida are declared nuisances injurious to health; and any person creating, keeping, or maintaining such nuisances who shall fall, after due notice from the State ~ealth Officer to abate the same, shall be fined not more than $50..0.0.11 From the above authorities it will therefore be seen: 1. That the City of Sanford, Florida, has power and ~uthority under its Police Power to pass and adopt an ordinance allowing the operation of abattoirs within the corporate limits under its sanitary regulations, andunder the regu- lations of The state Board of Health. 2. That the law generally is that such business can be conducted as any other business so long as it is properly conducted and does not become a mena~ce to public health and unless the same is operated in an unsani- tary manner or emits theref~om offensive odors affecting those living 1n the vicinity of then possible infection to the public from contaminated meat affecting consumers. 3. That the State Livestock Sanitary Board must issue a permit before slaughtering can be conducted by the licensee. 4. That it is an offense against the laws of the State of Florida to operate an unclean and filthy slaughterhouse within the corporate limits and that the operation of an unclean and filthy slaughterhouse is declared by state to be a nuisance injurious to publiC health. IIA slaughterhouse is not per se a public or private nuisance, indepen~ently of the manner in which ahd the place at which it is conducted, and the mere location and maintenance of a slaughter- house in a city under express legislative authority cannot be condemned as a public nuisance. It is not to be deemed a nuisance merely because it is situate in a populace place, or in close proximity to a dwelling house. II 48 Am.Juris.463. II The Court must aSSume that the use of a building for killing poultry is wholly inO,i'f'ensive, where, in a proceeding to com- pel revocation of a permit for such use of a building, no contention is made that the business is a nuisance, or in any way offensive.1I Petros vs Superintendent and Inspector of Buildings. 30.6 Mass. 368; 28 NE (2d} 233; 12g A.L.R. 1210. liThe business of slaughtering animals for food is not a nuisance, as a matter of law, independently of the manner in which it is conducted, if the slaughterhouse is situated in a new and sparsely settled portion of a city, in the neighborhood of stockyards and other slaughterhouses.

The above quotations of the law resolve itself into the second question: IS THE OPERATION OF AN ABATTOIR WITHIN THE CORPORATE LIMITS A PUBLIC OR PRIVATE NUISANCE? ~ It seems to me that the authorities above cited completely answer this question in that it is not in itself per se a public or'private nuisance, nor is it in itself a prima facia public or private nuisance unless by the operation thereof it emits therefrom noxious vapors or noisome smells or stenches. Nor is the operation of the slaughterhouse a private nuisance which may be enjoined by a court of equity unless by the operation thereof, it emits noxious vapors and noisome smells and stenches injurious to public health. r- Nor would the noise of animals kept for slaughtering be a private nuisance except to persons living in the near proximity thereof and such private nuisance may be abated by suit brought by that person to enjoin the keeping of animals near the slaughterhouse. The law generally as above outlined is not unlike the law as decided by the Supreme Court of Pl arida. In the case of Giliogger_v Bell et ~ , decided January 31,1941, by the Supreme Court of Florida and reported in 200 So. page 10Q, the Supreme Court sustained the lower court of Dade County, Florida, in enjoining the construction of an animal reduction plant on the ground that the operation of such a plant would constitute both a public nuisance and a private nuisance notwithstanding that the owner had expended about $1,800.00 for lands and in construction of the plant after given permission so to do by the City of Miami. In its opinion, the Court Said: II It is shown that the odors emanating from the p1ant wlll materially affect these properties) that such odors carry for great distances and that they often affect the health of those nearby besides causing nausea and discomfort." ~ In the case of Seab'oa;pd Rendering Co. v Conl con decided by the Supreme Court of Flor1da on April 9, 1943, reported in 12 So (2d) g82. the ~~preme Court sustained the Circuit Court of Dade County, Florida, in issuing an injunction restraining the operation of an animal reduction plant as constituting a nuisance but said in the opinion sustaining the lower court that the operator of the plant admitted the justification of entering the injunction and intimated in the opinion that the reason for the granting of the injunction waS the emission of obnoxious odors therefrom and the party against whom the injunction was issued questioned the validity of the injunction on the ground that he had not been given an opportunity to remedy the objections by eliminating the objectionable odors and the Supreme Court stated that the lower court in giving the operator time to process its livestock on hand before issuing the permanent injunction did not overcome the objectionable odors and said: "During this period ( the period of time given by the Court) it was shown that the offensive and objectionable odors still emitted. He (the Chancellor in the lower court) concluded from his study and knowledge of the litiga,tion that it was not pnacticable for the factory, ~ t~operated , to function without being a nuisance. Bearing in mind the concession of the appellant and the findings of the Cha,ncellor we feel that there is no occasion for our disturbing the final decree and we are not swayed from this view by the sug- gestion that provision ought to be included for revision of it against ~ d1U:.-wh~o~ p~ss is developed by w~ manufacture may be re~d without ~ emission~ obnoxious odors.

From the information at hand for the purpose of rendering this opinion, I am informed that the abattotr to be operated by Central Florida Quick Freeze Locker Plant is one of the most modern in Florida and that all of the slaughter- ing will be done indoors, and that a complete modern plant has been installed for the purpose of completely deodorizing the abattoir and that no noxious vapors, odors, noisome smells and stenches can possibly emit therefrom, since it is my understanding that the deodorization is by filtering and by emission of all refuse such as blood, etc, after deodorization into the sewage system of thA citv_ ,...., MINUTES 386 GITY COMMISSION, SANFORD, FLORIDA, October H~ at 3:00 P M 19~ I am further informed that the abattoir to be operated by said company, in addition to being modern in every respect, has been approved by the State Board of Health, and with this approval, the public health could not be in danger. If, however, in the management and operation of this abattoir it is so conducted a.s to become a menace to the public heal th: of the community or the nearby residents, the StateBoard of Health would promptly condemn the same and said resident would have their remedy by seeking enforcement of' the state law by the State Livestock Sanitary Board in revoking the permit of said company and imposing the penalty as provided by statute for failure of said company to comply with the law and the sanitary standards promulgated by the State Board of Health. So it would seem from the above quoted cases from the State of Florida that our courts, like other courts throughout the country, base their theory of a public or private nuisance upon the emission of noxious odors from a slaughterhouse or animal reduction plant. However, our Supreme Court in the SEABOARD RENDERING COMPANY case above cited took the long range view and state that if,~s time passes, science evolves_a proces~ f2r-t~manufacture 2! p~oducts in t~ plant........... which would elminate these objective odors that the injunction should be lifted. Taking this view connected with the information that both your governing body and I have as to the type of abattoir now being installed by the licensee with the knowledge .that such plant is of such modern design that no noxious or offensive odors could possibly emit therefrom, it would be my opinion that the same would not constitute a ~ublic or private nuisance. .In addition to the general police power under which the city may control abattoirs or public nuisances, Section 7 of the city charter provides that the city has power . Uto regulate, restrain or prevent the carrying on of manufactories dangerous in creating or producing fires or so obnoxious or offensive in nature as to constitute a nuisance." so it would seem that the city not only has authority. under its general police power but has charter authority to regulate abattoirs within its limits. With respect to the above, I thus, conclude: (a) That the City of Sanford is within its legal rights to pass and adopt an ordinance permitting the operation of abattoirs within the city of Sanford when the construction and operation thereof' has been approved by the State Board of Health. (b) That the operation of such abattoirs is not a public or private nuisance, per see (c) That in order to enjoin theoperation of said abattoirs any private ci tizen would have the burden of proving that the o.peration thereof is a public or private nuisance. (d) That the location of the abattoir is within the zoned commercial district of the city of Sanford, Florida, and that having been zoned as commercial the operation of a private business could not be prohibited by the city governing board unless the operation thereof would be in violation of some city ordinance or state law. The next question presented to me by your governing body is: VVHETHER THE CITY WOULD BE LIABLE IN DAMAGES TO CENTRAL FLORIDA QUICK FREEZE AND LOCKER PLANT BY REASON OF ITS HAVING PREVIOUSLY ADOPTED ORDINANCES #398 P~~ITTING THE OPERATION OF ABATTOIRS THE CONSTRUCTION OF WHICH HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE STATE BOARD OF HEALTH AND THE OPERATION OF WHICH IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RUiLES AND REGULATIONS PROVIDED BY SAID BOARD AND BY THE ISSUANCE OF A PERMIT FOR THE IN- STALLATION OF AN ABATTOIR WHEN AFTER THE ADOPTION OF SAID ORDINANCE AND THE ISSUANCE OF SAID PERMIT SAID COMPANY HAS SPENT SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS IN INSTALLING ITS SAID ABATTOIR IN PREPARAT ION TO CPERATION OF THE SAME. This question I would be forced to answer in the negative. That is to say, that the city of Sanford, Florida, would not be liable in damages should it repeal Ordinance #398 and my authority therefor is as follows: " An ordinance establishing a locality within which slaughterhouses m~y be maintained may be repealed in the exercise of the police power tnus granted and another established." 48 Am Juris 462; 18 Annotated cases 470. from. thitffiq~y..c I have answered the questions presented to me by your governin body I believe-.. e sliort time alloted to me to make a search of the law I, of course, have not had opportunity to read all of the cases on the. , subject as they are numerous but the majority cases in every respect seem to support the view above outlined and support my views rendered in this opinion.
