A person commits an offense if he throws or deposits litter on any occupied private premises within the city, whether owned by the person or not, or in or on any gutter, parkway, sidewalk, or alley adjacent to the private premises; except, that the owner, occupant, or person in control of private premises may maintain authorized private receptacles for collection in such a manner that litter will be prevented from being carried or deposited by the elements upon any street, gutter, parkway, sidewalk, alley, or other public place or upon any private premises.
