[Adopted 6-6-1974 as Ord. No. 1.13 of the Revised Unified Code of Ordinances]
It shall be the duty of owners of real property
within the village to maintain in good and safe repair, care for and
keep clean and free from filth, dirt, weeds or other accumulations,
obstructions or encumbrances, sidewalks, paths or public thoroughfares
set apart for pedestrians in front of or abutting upon their property.
The Director of Public Works of the village
shall prepare or cause to be prepared from time to time, when deemed
necessary, reports on sidewalks which are defective or in a state
of disrepair or upon which there are accumulations, obstructions or
encumbrances injurious to the use or appearance thereof.
A notice to correct any condition stated herein
may be served by the Director of Public Works or his agent either
personally or by mail by mailing a copy of the same to the owner at
his last known address as the same appears on the assessment rolls
of the village.
Whenever a property owner is required by notice
to build, relay or repair defective sidewalks, such construction or
repair shall be made in accordance with grades and specifications
on file in the office of the Department of Public Works of the village.
If such owner fails, neglects or refuses to
comply with said notice within the time specified therein, not exceeding
30 days from the date of said notice, the Department of Public Works
shall cause the condition to be corrected and the cost thereof may
be assessed against the owner of properties fronting or abutting such
defective, damaged or obstructed sidewalks, paths or public thoroughfares.
[Added 7-15-1982 by L.L. No. 4-1982]
Wherever, in this Article, reference is made
to sidewalks, such term shall include driveway aprons.
