A. All weeds, dry grasses, trees, shrubs and other vegetation, rubbish, refuse, garbage, trash or any material present upon the streets, sidewalks, adjacent public rights of way or upon private property within the city, which by reason of size, manner of growth, or location constitutes a fire hazard to any building, improvement, crop or other property, as well as weeds and other vegetation, which by reason of promiscuous propagation are likely to cause damage to public streets and sidewalks, or which interferes with the reasonable enjoyment of property by the neighbors are declared to be a public nuisance.
B. Regularly cultivated, mowed and useful grasses and pastures shall not be declared a public nuisance. However, if the fire chief or his authorized representative determines it necessary to protect adjacent improved property from fire exposure, an adequate firebreak may be required.
C. "Waste matter" as herein defined, which by reason of its location and character is unsightly or which interferes with the reasonable enjoyment of property by the neighbors, or which would materially hamper or interfere with the prevention or suppression of fire upon the premises, or any adjoining premises or the abatement of a "nuisance" as defined by this chapter is declared a public nuisance.
