Failure of the abutting property owner to maintain, repair or reconstruct adjacent sidewalks, planting strips and transition strips in accordance with this chapter is declared a public nuisance. Any abutting property owner failing to abate the nuisance within 45 days of notice of the same shall be subject to a fine of up to $250.00 for each offense. The court hearing violations of this chapter may consider each day the abutting owner fails to abate such a nuisance after notice to be a separate violation. (Ord. 1197 § 1, 1981)
