      (1)   Not construct any building, structure, earthworks or ponds, nor in any other way disturb the general grade and slope of the land;
      (2)   Maintain the property so that no nuisance is created;
      (3)   Immediately relinquish any rights presumed to be held concerning the property upon notice by the city; and
      (4)   Permit access to the property at any time when requested to do so by a municipal officer or employee.
   (D)   It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to construct, erect, build or cause to be constructed, erected or built, any fence, of whatever height or material, within any dedicated road right-of- way in the city.
