In the interests of animal control ordinance enforcement, animal rescue, and open violation enforcement, any person keeping or harboring any animal in this city by so doing does thereby authorize the director of animal control, the director of health, the representatives of either, or a police officer to enter without warrant, when there are exigent circumstances, upon private property, except inside any residential structure, of such person who owns or controls where such animal is found, in plain sight, for the purpose of enforcement of this chapter and to seize such animal from the private property to abate an ordinance violation.
