The purpose of this section is to establish standards for a program of inspections meant to <br />improve and maintain the overall rental housing in the city. Housing inspections do not indicate <br />compliance with any inspectional program other than that of the city. Inspections are made as a public <br />service and do not constitute any representation, guarantee or warranty to any person as to the conditions <br />of the building inspected. The city does not assume any responsibility or liability in connection with the <br />inspection and issuance of the license required by this chapter. <br />(B) Initial compliance inspection. Prior to issuance of a license to operate a rental dwelling unit, the <br />Compliance Official, together with the local Fire Marshal, shall inspect the premises for compliance <br />with this chapter. A record of the inspection, listing any built-in deficiencies which are exempt from <br />compliance, shall be kept on file at the City Hall. <br /> <br />(C) Biannual compliance inspection. All rental dwelling units shall be reinspected for compliance with this <br />chapter a minimum of once every two years. <br /> <br />(D) Complaints inspections. Inspections shall be made at any time upon receipt of a complaint wherein the <br />complainant leaves his or her name, address and telephone number. Inspections will not be made based <br />upon anonymous complaints. <br /> <br />(E) Permission to enter. Permission of the tenant shall be requested before a rental unit is entered. If the <br />tenant refuses to permit the inspector to enter, the inspector is authorized to obtain an administrative <br />search warrant before making the inspection. <br /> <br />232΋tğŭĻ <br /> <br />
