Alleys are public thoroughfares and are to be kept clear of obstructions at all times. Containers must be placed in such a way that it will not obstruct the use of the alley as a public thoroughfare at any time, and provided that no permanent bases or foundations for such containers be permitted in the city alleys or street. If other collection facilities are to be used, they must be placed within the boundary of the private property, and immediately adjacent to the alley used by the Sanitation Contractor for pick-up service. It shall be the duty of the property owner adjacent to the alley to keep the alley clear of weeds, and to prevent obstruction of the alley by overhanging shrubs and trees.
