Upon receipt of an application provided for in § 164-2, the Village Clerk shall refer the same to the County Health Officer for investigation and report as to the sanitary condition of such hotel, restaurant or place for the sale of food or beverages. The County Health Officer shall thereupon inspect the premises on which such business is proposed to be operated and report the results of his investigation to the Board of Trustees.
