The board of health of a city or general health district may destroy any infected clothing, bedding, or other article that cannot be made safe by disinfection, and shall furnish to the owner of the articles a receipt, of which the board shall keep a complete and accurate copy, for articles so destroyed. The receipt shall show the number, character, condition, and estimated value of the articles destroyed. When a building, hut, or other structure has become infected with a dangerous communicable disease, and cannot, in the opinion of the board, be made safe by disinfection, the board may have the building, hut, or other structure appraised and destroyed.
