§ 52.30 ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS AND PROVISIONS.
   (A)   Waivers or modifications.

This chapter shall not be construed to hold the city or the county or any officer or employee responsible thereof for any damage to persons or property by reason of the inspection or reinspection authorized herein provided, or by reason of the approval or disapproval of equipment or licensing herein, nor for any action in connection with the inspection or control of solid waste or in connection with any other official duties.
