(A) It shall be unlawful for any person to permit any animal owned or harbored by him to deposit fecal matter in any place other than the premises where the animal is harbored or kept, unless such fecal matter is immediately collected and removed to the premises where the animal is harbored or kept.
(B) It shall be unlawful for any person to walk any animal on any property not owned by such person, whether public or private, unless such person has an appropriate device for the collection of fecal matter in his immediate possession and an appropriate depository for the transmission of fecal matter to the premises where the animal is harbored or kept.
(C) Every person lawfully keeping or harboring any animal shall keep or cause to be kept all manure or offal which is deposited by or which accumulates from such animal, securely and closely confined to or buried upon his or her premises and in such manner as will prevent it from being scattered from such place of deposit into or upon any street, sidewalk, alley, or gutter of the city, or into or upon any private property, and shall so cover and care for it as to prevent any malodorous or offensive condition to exist and to prevent any nuisance to arise therefrom. All such deposits shall be promptly removed from the owner's premises and/or otherwise properly disposed of, in no event later than 24 hours after a complaint is received by the city. Failure to comply with this subsection is a misdemeanor.
