In any case where the provisions of this chapter, or the International Mechanical Code, 2021 edition, or International Residential Code Chapters 12-24, 2021 edition, adopted hereby, are found to be in conflict with a provision of the Code of Iowa, or a provision of any zoning, building, fire, safety, or health ordinance or code of the City, the provision which establishes the higher standard for the promotion and protection of the health and safety of the people shall prevail.
1. It shall be the permit holder’s responsibility to inspect the construction site on a daily basis to ensure that the site is clean and free of excess debris. In no case shall debris, refuse, or junk be permitted to blow, drift, or otherwise be deposited upon an adjacent street or property.
2. Similarly, the permit holder shall be solely responsible for controlling erosion on-site throughout the duration of the construction project. Erosion control shall be managed in accordance with Chapter 11 of this title.
No person performing construction of any nature or furnishing materials, or performing services within the City shall drive across or cause any vehicle, trailer, implement, equipment, materials, or supplies to cross any street curbing without adequately protecting the street curbing from damage thereby.
Violations of the provisions of this chapter, or failure to comply with any of its requirements, shall constitute a municipal infraction as set forth in Title 1 Chapter 4A of this Code. Each day that a violation occurs shall constitute a separate offense. In the event that the City seeks court intervention for a violation of any provision of this chapter, the City may seek reimbursement for reasonable attorney fees and additional costs. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the City from taking such other lawful actions as necessary to prevent or remedy violations.
