No person shall discard or abandon, in any place accessible to children, any chest or box having a capacity of one and one-half cubic feet or more, with an attached lid or door which may be opened and fastened shut by means of an attached latch, except a refrigerator or icebox; and no person being the owner, lessee or manager of such place, shall knowingly permit such abandoned or discarded chest or box to remain there in such condition. This section does not prohibit or cover any act prohibited by Section 402b of the Penal Code of the state or by any other state statute.
(Prior code § 19-1)
A. 
Every person who digs, drills, excavates, constructs, owns or controls any abandoned water well or abandoned oil well, and every person owning or having possession of any premises on which any such abandoned well exists, shall cap or otherwise close the mouth of or entrance to such well in such a manner as to prevent persons from falling therein and in such a manner that such capping or covering cannot be removed by accident or inadvertence; or such persons shall fill such well.
B. 
Whenever any person fails or refuses to perform any act required by this section, the city may itself cap, cover or fill such well. It is not necessary to follow the provisions of this section as a condition precedent to any criminal prosecution. In the event the city caps, covers or fills such well, the cost and expense thereof shall be paid to the city by the owner or possessor of such property and a civil action may be brought by the city to recover the same. In such action the city shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney's fees.
(Prior code § 25-10)
Every person operating or maintaining an oil well shall cause all sumps, cellars and ditches which were used, installed or maintained for use in connection with any well, and which have not been used for ninety days for the operation of or the drilling of such well or any other well in the vicinity, to be cleaned out and all oil, rotary mud and rubbish removed therefrom.
