§ 42-4. Inspections.  


Latest version.
  • The supervisor of liquor control and his authorized representatives and any member of the city police department shall be authorized to make inspections at reasonable times and hours of any establishment licensed under the provisions of this chapter for purposes of determining whether the provisions of this chapter or of any other city ordinance or state law they are authorized to enforce is being fully complied with. It shall be unlawful for any licensee or employee of such licensee to refuse such entry into his licensed premises or any part thereof, and such refusal shall make such person liable to immediate arrest therefor, or to be taken into custody under the city's process of a duly issued complaint and warrant for the arrest of such person for such offense and trial therefor in the municipal court. If, in the opinion of the supervisor of liquor control or his authorized representative or any member of the police department, probable cause exists for belief that the laws of the city or the state are being violated, such person may apply to the proper court for a warrant to search such premises under the provisions of the applicable city ordinance or state statute relating to such process.
