[Adopted 6-22-2005 by Ord. No. 14-05]
No person or persons shall place in any public street, right-of-way
or on the sidewalk of any public street any fixed or portable basketball
net or backboard or other equipment or apparatus for the playing of
basketball or any other sport for which such an apparatus can be used
nor shall such equipment or apparatus be placed on private property
or in the vicinity of any public right-of-way such that the use of
the equipment or apparatus will tend to require any user to be in
and about the public right-of-way.
No person shall place, deposit, fix or allow to remain on any
utility pole located on any sidewalk, adjacent lands or street any
article, including but not limited to basketball hoops or other recreational
equipment, in such a manner that the intended use of the article so
attached to the utility pole would wholly or partially obstruct and
encumber the sidewalk, street, or public right-of-way.
B.
There shall be a presumption that the person or persons who have
violated this provision are those who control the private property
on which the equipment or apparatus is situated, or if the equipment
or apparatus is in a public right-of-way, those who control the private
property closest to the equipment or apparatus.
