The parent/guardian/caretaker of a child taken into emergency custody shall be given reasonable notice of the time and place of the emergency custody hearing. That notice will be given at least five hours prior to the hearing which is scheduled within 48 hours, not to include nonjudicial days of detention as noted above, unless the parent/guardian/caretaker cannot be located and/or unless conditions of notice, e.g., flooding, road closures, or other acts of inclement weather make such notice attempts dangerously unadvisable. In such case(s) that notice cannot be effected YSS must file a declaration of due diligence fully setting forth the circumstances preventing such notice. [Ord. 46A § 1701(e), adopted, 3/24/2016.]
