Sec. 30-39. Retaining walls for earth embankments.
Wherever earth embankments abut on any paved street or
sidewalk, it shall be the duty of the owner of such property
to erect suitable barriers or retaining walls to prevent loose
earth or mud from falling upon such street or sidewalk. If
any person fails to conform hereto within a reasonable time
after being notified to do so by the city manager, each day of
default shall be deemed a separate offense. If, however, a
change in the grade of the street, made by the city, produces
an embankment abutting on a paved street or sidewalk, it
shall be the duty of the city to erect protecting barriers, if
deemed necessary by the city. (Code 1959, § 30-39.)
