(a) The Zoning Inspector is hereby authorized and directed to make inspections to determine the condition of exterior structures and premises located within the Village in order that he may perform his duty of safeguarding the health and safety of dwellings and of the general public.
(b) In the event of the refusal of the owner or occupant to voluntarily permit entry as requested, the Zoning Inspector shall consult the Solicitor and the Solicitor shall determine whether the facts are such as to support the application for a search warrant in a Court of Law to enable the Zoning Inspector to gain entry to the premises for the purpose of inspection. In the event the Solicitor determines, based upon the facts presented that application for a search warrant for inspection purposes should be made, the Solicitor is authorized to proceed with an application for a search warrant enabling the Zoning Inspector to conduct his inspection.
