Section 6.04.040 Investigation.
For the purpose of discharging the duties imposed by this

occupants of any premises upon or in which a dog or other animal is kept or harbored, the
exhibition of such dog or other animal or the license for such dog. It is unlawful for any person to
refuse such demand. The animal control officer may make such demand at premises where any
