premises to be littered with rubbish or dirt. If such owner or occupant
shall refuse or fail to remove any such rubbish or dirt when notified
to do so by the Director of Public Works, the Director may cause the
same to be done and report the cost thereof to the Village Clerk-Treasurer,
who shall spread the cost on the tax roll as a special tax against
the premises pursuant to § 66.0703, Wis. Stats., or such
cost may be recovered in an action against the owner or occupant.
All vaults and cisterns under sidewalks shall be prohibited.
No downspouts from any building shall terminate on or upon, or be in such position that the contents of such spout shall be cast upon or flow back on or over, any public sidewalk in the Village. When the eaves of a building extend over or are so constructed that water may fall therefrom onto or run back upon any public sidewalk, such eaves shall be so protected by proper spouts or otherwise so that no water shall fall or drain therefrom or run back upon or over any public sidewalk. The owner or owners of any building and the officers of any association or corporation owning any building on which any spouts or the eaves thereof shall be maintained contrary to this section shall be subject to a penalty as provided in §
1-4 of this Code.
