The owner, occupant or tenant of every property upon or alongside any street in the Borough shall remove or cause to be removed, from all sidewalks in front of or alongside of such property, all snow or ice fallen or formed thereon, within twenty-four hours after the same has ceased to fall or form. No snow or ice removed or shoveled from sidewalks shall be placed or thrown in or on the streets and alleys of the Borough. However, the owner of the property shall be responsible for conforming to the requirements of this section where that property is occupied by the owner or is unoccupied; the tenant or occupier thereof shall be responsible where the property is occupied by the tenant or occupier only; and the owner shall be responsible where the property is a multiple-business or multiple-dwelling property, occupied by more than one tenant or occupier.
(b) Removal of Snow and Ice by Borough; Recovery of Costs. In any case where the owner, occupant or tenant fails, neglects or refuses to comply with subsection (a) hereof, within the time limit prescribed therein, Borough authorities may proceed immediately to clear all snow and/or ice from the sidewalk of such owner, occupant or tenant and to collect the expenses thereof, with any additional amount allowed by law, from such owner, occupant or tenant, as the case may be, which may be in addition to any fine or other penalty imposed under Section 674.99.
