No owner or occupant shall allow the sidewalk abutting on his
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 of Public Works
may cause the same to be done and report the cost thereof to the Village
Treasurer who shall spread the cost on the tax roll as a special tax
against the premises, pursuant to § 66.0627, Wis. Stats.,
or such cost may be recovered in an action against the owner or occupant.
No downspouts from any building shall terminate on or upon, or in such position that the contents of such spout be cast upon or flow back 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 or run back upon any public sidewalk, such eaves shall be so protected by proper spouts or otherwise 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 of Ordinances.

the free passage of water in any public gutter, ditch, culvert, swale
or drain or place or cause to be placed any rubbish, dirt, sand, gravel
or any other matter or thing so that the same is likely to be carried
by the elements into any public gutter, ditch, culvert, swale or drain.
