Sec. 167. Removal of obstructions from the streets, etc.
It shall be the duty of the police to promptly notify the City
Manager of all permanent obstructions of the streets, drains, or
culverts. The City Manager shall forthwith cause all such obstructions
to be removed by either the person responsible for the
same or whose duty it is to remove the same or failing in this to
have the same removed at the cost of the City. If any person
whose duty it is to remove any such obstruction fails or refuses
to do so within a reasonable time after being notified to do so by
the City Manager he shall be fined not less than one nor more
than ten dollars for each day that he defaults; and when the obstruction
is removed at the cost of the City, the party whose
duty it was to have removed said obstruction shall be fined in addition
to the foregoing penalty such a sum as equals the expense
incurred in and about such removal, together with twenty per
centum thereof in addition thereto.
