[Adopted 7-27-1982 as Sec. 3-14
of the 1981 Revised General Ordinances]
Where it shall be necessary and expedient for
the preservation of the public safety, the owner or tenant of lands
may be required to cut to a height of not more than 2 1/2 feet all
brush, hedges and other plant life growing within 10 feet of any roadway
and within 25 feet of the intersection of two roadways.
The Property Maintenance Officer is hereby empowered
to determine the necessity for the cutting of brush, hedges and other
plant life as hereinabove provided. It shall give the property owner
or tenant 10 days' written notice to cut the same to the height required
herein, and upon failure of the owner or tenant to comply with said
notice, the brush, hedges or other plant life shall be cut by municipal
employees.
The Property Maintenance Officer shall certify
the cost of any such work performed to the Borough Council, which
shall, under the provisions of N.J.S.A. 40:48-2.27, charge the same
against the lands, to be added to and become a part of the taxes assessed
and levied upon such lands.
