(a) No person shall in any manner permit any stone, brick, dirt, earth, sand, muddy water, ashes, garbage, rubbish, or decaying matter of any kind, coal, or any other thing, matter, or substance which litters or tends to litter the street fall from any wagon, cart, or vehicle under his control, on any street, square, court, lane, avenue, alley, or public place, or on any lot or parcel of ground in the Municipality. No person shall convey or carry through any street, square, court, lane, avenue, alley or other public place, any liquid refuse matter or slops of any kind, unless the liquid refuse matter is conveyed in watertight wagons, carts, vehicles, or vessels.
(b) Contractors or subcontractors who enter into a contract of any building or excavating or razing of buildings shall post with the Finance Director a security bond of one hundred dollars ($100.00) or more to assure no littering of streets, alleys, or public ways with mud, and other building materials. In the event such contractor or subcontractor causes or permits the littering of streets or alleys with debris or excavating materials by reason of the removal or conveyance of the materials on the streets or alleys, the contractor or subcontractor shall clean or remove such debris within twenty-four hours after being notified by the Finance Director or his authorized agent. If the contractor fails to remove or is unable to remove the materials, then the cleaning service shall be rendered by the Street Department at the current hourly rates of its equipment and personnel. The Street Department shall render the bill for such services to the contractor or subcontractor and shall also send a duplicate bill to the Finance Director. Violations subsequent to an accumulated cost exceeding the one hundred dollar ($100.00) posted bond shall be subject to a penalty. (1980 Code 95.06)
