§ 146-1. Duty to remove or abate.

A. 

Whenever it shall be deemed for the preservation of the public health, safety and welfare, or to eliminate a fire hazard, the Director of the Department of Public Works, or his designee, shall require any owner, tenant, occupant, managing agent, executor, administrator, or other similar person to remove or destroy brush, weeds (including ragweed), dead and dying trees, stumps, roots, obnoxious growth, filth, garbage, trash and debris within 10 days after receipt of notice to remove or destroy the same.

B. 

No person shall cause any brush, weeds, dead or dying trees, stumps, roots, obnoxious growth, filth, garbage, trash or debris to be removed from the property of said owner upon any Borough or county right-of-way or easement or upon neighboring property. All such obnoxious growth and debris shall be collected and either removed from the premises or accumulated in trash cans, bags or other similar containers for removal by any appropriate sanitation service. The property shall be cleared within the entire perimeter of the property and extending to the curb or gutter line of the adjoining roadway, as the case may be.
