Prior to any inspection occurring on any private premises sought to be inspected, the inspector shall obtain written consent of a person authorized to give consent for entry and inspection. In the event that written consent is sought and not obtained (either through refusal or nonresponse) the inspector shall obtain an administrative search warrant, prior to entry. Except in cases of emergency, notice of the inspection shall be given ten days in advance of the date of the actual inspection to the occupant (at the address sought to be inspected) and owner of record by regular U.S. mail to the address listed in the Stark County Auditor's Office.
