§ 235-9. Visibility at corners.

A. 

All shrubs and bushes located on the triangle formed by two right-of-way lines at the intersection of two streets, and extending for a distance of 20 feet each way from the intersection of the right-of-way lines on any corner lot within the City, shall not be permitted to grow to a height of more than 30 inches in height from top of curb at street level, in order that the view of the driver of a vehicle approaching a street intersection shall not be obstructed. Trees may be planted and maintained on private property in this area, provided that all branches are trimmed to maintain a clear vision for a vertical height of eight feet above the roadway surface.

B. 

The owner of any property failing to trim any trees, shrubs or bushes in conformity with this section shall be notified by the Director to do so, and such notice shall require trimming in conformity with this section within 10 days after the date of such notice. Upon the expiration of such period, the Director may cause the trimming to be done and the cost thereof may be collected from the owner of said property as a single-lot assessment in accordance with the City Charter.
