§ 11A-9. Remedial action.

If at any time after a complaint has been filed, the Director or the Commission upon conferring with the County Attorney, has reasonable cause to believe that appropriate civil action to preserve the status quo or to prevent irreparable harm appears advisable, the Director or the Commission shall refer the complaint to the County Attorney, who may, at his or her discretion and a determination that the complaint raises a matter of great public importance, commence a civil action to preserve the status quo or to prevent irreparable harm. Any temporary restraining order or other order granting preliminary or temporary relief shall be issued in accordance with the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure. The commencement of a civil action under this chapter shall be in addition to all remedies otherwise available under federal and state law, municipal ordinances and this chapter.
