Where a provision of this code authorizes or necessitates an investigation or inspection by any department or official of the city before issuance, continuation or renewal of a license, and requires the approval by such department or official, the city comptroller shall transmit, within forty eight (48) hours of the time an application for such license is received by the city comptroller, to each department or official charged with the investigation and approval of any such application, such information as may be necessary in order that the authorized or required investigation or inspection may be made. Each such department head or official shall make any necessary investigation or inspection, and shall note the results thereof on the license application. The department head or official may rely upon the record of any inspection of the premises conducted within the previous one hundred eighty (180) days in determining that the premises do or do not comply with the requirements of this code. The department head or official performing the inspection shall promptly thereafter note upon the application whether he finds that the premises comply with the provisions of this code. The city comptroller shall be notified accordingly. (Ord. 1688, 3-12-2002)
