[Adopted 4-13-1920; amended in its entirety 8-15-1990 by L.L. No. 4-1990]
Every owner or occupant of any house or other building and the
owner or proprietor, lessee or person entitled to the possession of
any vacant lot and every person having the charge of any church, cemetery,
jail or other public building in this City shall, during the winter
season and during the time snow shall continue on the ground, by 10:00
a.m. on every morning when necessary, clear the sidewalks and gutters
in front of such house or other building and in front of such lot
from snow and ice and keep them conveniently free therefrom during
the day or shall, in case the snow and ice are so congealed that they
cannot be removed without injury to the pavement, cause said snow
and ice to be strewed with ashes or sand and shall also at all times
keep such sidewalk clean and free from all dirt, filth or obstruction
or encumbrances so as to allow the citizens using the sidewalk to
do so in an easy and commodious manner. Every person refusing or neglecting
to comply with the provisions of this article shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor and, upon conviction, shall be liable to a fine of not
exceeding $250 in amount or imprisonment of not exceeding six months,
or to both such fine and imprisonment.
