     32.104 Local inspection.  


    Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the governing 
 authority of any municipal corporation or other subdivision of 
 state government may, by ordinance, provide for the inspection 
 of milk, cream, butter, or other dairy products sold within its 
 limits, and of dairy plants, dairy farms and dairy herds kept 
 for the production of such milk, cream, butter, or other dairy 
 products and may prescribe the terms upon which such sales may 
 be made and fix penalties for violation thereof, but no such 
 ordinance shall conflict with any law of this state, or with any 
 rule of the commissioner for the inspection of dairy herds or 
 dairy plants or dairy farms or impose any additional requirement 
 for the sale of milk, cream, butter or other dairy products 
 processed outside the corporate limits of the municipality than 
 is imposed by law or by the rules of the commissioner, or 
 require a duplication of inspection of dairy plants, dairy 
 farms, or dairy herds producing milk, cream, butter or other 
 dairy products sold within its corporate limits, or otherwise 
 interfere with any power or duty of the commissioner or the 
 commissioner's official subordinates.  


    When a dairy plant is licensed by the commissioner of 
 agriculture, the plant, including all distribution facilities 
 and vehicles, is exempt from the licensing requirements of any 
 subdivision of state government except for licensing 
 requirements which the city in which the plant is located may 
 impose.
