7-3-3: DUTY OF PROPERTY OWNERS:
   A.   Grass And Weeds: Every owner of property abutting on any street shall cause the grass and weeds to be cut from the line of such property nearest to such street to the center of such street. If the grass or weeds in such a place attain a height in excess of six inches (6") it shall be prima facie evidence of a failure to comply with this section. Every owner of property abutting on any street shall, subject to the provision herein requiring a permit therefor, trim, cut and otherwise maintain all trees and shrubs from the line of such property nearest to such street to the center of such street. (1988 Code § 7.09; amd. Ord. 84, 2nd Series, 8-8-2006)
   B.   Dangerous And Hazardous Trees: When the Parks Director for the City of Sleepy Eye determines that there are dangerous or hazardous trees located on the boulevard or in the area from a property owner's property line to the center of the street, he shall notify the owner of said abutting property that the trees must be removed. The cost of the removal of the trees, together with the removal of the stump, shall be split on a 50-50 basis between the abutting property owner and the City of Sleepy Eye. In the event that the abutting property owner refuses to remove the tree or refuses to make payment for fifty percent (50%), the remaining sections of this title and chapter shall apply. (Ord. 84, 2nd Series, 8-8-2006)
