The Court may consider any of the following factors along with such other matters as it deems pertinent in its decision as to whether a warrant shall issue:
(1) Eyewitness accounts of violations;
(2) Citizen complaints;
(3) Tenant complaints;
(4) Plain view violations;
(5) Violations apparent from village records;
(6) Property deterioration;
(7) Age of property;
(8) Nature of alleged violations;
(9) Similar properties in area;
(10) Documented violations for similar properties in the area;
(11) Passage of time since last inspection; and
(12) Previous violations on the property.
(B) Cause for issuance of an administrative search warrant shall be deemed to exist in light of reasonable legislative and administrative standards which show that there is reason to believe that a condition of non-conformity exists with respect to a particular property in violation of the codes and ordinances of the village.
