This applies in all cases for which no other specific provisions are made in this Chapter.
(b) The permitting of stagnant water on any lot or piece of ground within the City limits is hereby declared to be a nuisance, and every owner or occupant of a lot or piece of ground within the City is hereby required to drain or fill up said lot or piece of ground whenever the same is necessary so as to prevent stagnant water or other nuisances from accumulating thereon. It is unlawful for any such owner or occupant to permit or maintain any such nuisance.
