The city shall not maintain an area within the undeveloped right-of-way which has not been improved pursuant to city standards and is being used by adjoining property owners as private access, driveway, or parking area, nor shall the city furnish bituminous asphalt, Portland cement concrete, dense graded aggregate, granular material or any other type of fill or improvement, or keep this area graded. If this area causes a blockage and prevents proper drainage, at the option of the city, the city will perform whatever work is necessary to maintain proper drainage. If maintenance, repair, or installation of any utility is required within any of these areas, the city and/or utility company shall be able to remove any improvements within the right-of-way as may be necessary. If the city determines that this type of activity in any way violates or impedes traffic safety, traffic movement, safety of other citizens, development of the city's infrastructure, damage to the city's infrastructure, or any other provisions within this chapter, city standards, and/or additional related ordinances, then the city shall notify the property owner to remove the improvements within the right-of-way, or the city will perform whatever work is necessary to remove the improvements within the right-of-way.
