(a) Any waterway on private property that does not convey public water as deemed by the City Engineer or is not named on the City of Avon Master River and Ditch Location Map must be maintained by the property owner and is considered a private waterway (ditch or swale). If the waterway lies between multiple properties, the expense to maintain the waterway shall be shared by all property owners which flow into said waterway.
(b) If the maintenance of the waterway is deemed to become a nuisance and has not been properly maintained by the property owners then the City may enter the property to perform maintenance on the waterway and assess the property owners the cost of the maintenance.
(c) Any private waterway may be relocated by a property owner as long as the relocated waterway continues to maintain the existing drainage and the relocation is approved by the City Engineer.
