Pennsylvania law sections 8391 and 8392 outline procedures for property owners to suspend or cancel abatement orders related to drug nuisances, including conditions for suspension, fines, and bonds. Section 2000 discusses the repeal of previous laws, while section 8502 details enforcement proceedings. These laws aim to regulate nuisance abatement and enforcement actions effectively.
A property owner can suspend an abatement order for up to 90 days if they had no knowledge of the drug-related nuisance, could not reasonably have known, and agree to take measures to abate the nuisance.
The owner must pay all fines and liens, demonstrate that the nuisance has been abated for 90 days, correct housing and health violations, and post a bond as determined by the court.
The bond ensures the property owner will take necessary measures to prevent the nuisance from recurring; it is forfeitable if the nuisance recurs within one year.
The remaining provisions of the law or application to other circumstances will not be affected, maintaining the law's overall validity.
