In the event the Police Department deems an excavation to be dangerous to life, limb or property, the Department shall notify the property owner forthwith, and the excavation shall, within twenty-four hours of such notice, be barricaded at all times and lighted during the night season by the property owner or his agent. The barricading and lighting shall be a temporary measure, and in no event shall an excavation be left open for more than thirty days after the Department deems it to be dangerous. No owner upon whose land an excavation exists shall fail to barricade and light such excavation according to the provisions of this section.
