Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, no person shall maintain, plant or permit to remain on any private or public property situated at the intersection of two or more streets or alleys in the village, any tree, shrub or other plant growth, which may obstruct the view of the operator of any motor vehicle or pedestrian approaching such intersection, as described in § 91.02.
