B. Offensive Conditions: It shall be unlawful and no person owning, harboring or keeping an animal within the city shall permit any waste matter from the animal to collect and remain on the property of the owner or custodian, or on the property of others so as to cause or create an unhealthy, unsanitary, dangerous or offensive living condition on the owner's or custodian's property, or upon the abutting or nearby property of others.
C.
