An authorized representative of the City of Chicago charged with enforcement of this ordinance, upon presentation if requested of the appropriate credentials to the owner, occupant or his representative, may inspect child care facilities, schools, dwellings and residential buildings at reasonable times, for the purposes of ascertaining that all surfaces accessible to children are intact and in good repair, and for purposes of ascertaining the existence of lead-bearing substances. An authorized representative of the city may also inspect soil surrounding of said facilities and may also inspect commercial establishments for the purposes of ascertaining whether any lead-bearing substances or lead hazards are present. Such representative may remove samples or objects necessary for laboratory analysis. If a person entitled to withhold consent to an inspection refuses to allow inspection, a representative of the city may apply for a warrant to permit entry.
