Provided, however, that a state of emergency established under F.S. § 870.041, et seq., shall terminate at the end of a period of seventy-two (72) consecutive hours after the declaration of the emergency, unless, prior to the end of the seventy-two (72) hour period, the public official calling for a declaration of emergency of the city commission has terminated such state of emergency. Notice of termination of the emergency declaration shall be made to the public by the city manager or acting city manager by available means.
