(A) It is unlawful to deposit on any street or sidewalk any material which may be harmful to the pavement thereof, or any waste material, or any glass or other articles which may do injury to any person, animal or property. Materials may be deposited in or on streets preparatory to delivery or use; provided that, the deposit does not reduce the usable width of the roadway at that point to less than 18 feet; and, provided that, the materials, other than actual building construction, shall not be permitted to remain in the street for more than six hours.
(B) Merchants or other articles may be deposited on sidewalks preparatory to delivery; provided that, the usable width of the sidewalk is not thereby reduced to less than three feet; and, provided that, no articles may remain on the walk for more than four hours.
(C) Building or other materials shall be guarded by lights if the same remains upon any street after nighttime. A special permit shall be required for each night that materials remain on a thoroughfare or public place.
