A. It shall be the duty of the director (or authorized employee) to enforce the provisions of this title, or any conditions properly imposed by the hearing examiner or council related to the use of land, and see that any violations are remedied through proper legal channels.

B. Upon presentation of proper credentials, the director or his duly authorized representatives may enter at reasonable times any building, structure, or premises in the city to perform any duty imposed by this title; provided, however, that the occupant of a dwelling unit has the right to request that the inspections be delayed until a time mutually agreed upon by the occupants and the inspector. Should the occupant refuse to allow inspection within a reasonable time, the director shall obtain a court order prior to entry. When possible, said director is required to advise said occupant of his rights pursuant to this subsection.

C. The director of any city employee charged with the enforcement of this title, acting in good faith and without malice in the discharge of the duties herein imposed, shall not thereby render himself liable personally and is hereby relieved from all personal liability for the damages that may accrue to persons or property as a result of any act required or by reason of any act or omission in the discharge of the duties. Any suit brought against the director or employee, because of such act or omission, shall be defended by the city until termination of the proceedings. [Ord. 2002-10-069 § 58; Ord. 9024, 1982].
