§ 96.15 SERVICE OF WRITTEN NOTICE AND ACTION BY CITY MANAGER.
   The legislative authority shall cause a written notice to be served in the manner provided by the R.C. § 731.52 or any other method determined by the legislative authority upon the owner, lessee, agent of the owner or tenant of such property, notifying such person to prune any tree or shrub or to remove any dead, diseased or dangerous trees, or broken or decayed limbs overhanging any street or right of way within the city. The pinning or the removal of dead, diseased or dangerous trees, or broken or decayed limbs, which constitute a menace to the public safety, shall be done by said owners at their own expense within 30 days of serviced notice. Upon failure of such persons to comply with such notice, the legislative authority shall direct the pruning of any tree or shrub or the removal of any dead, diseased or dangerous tree, or broken, or decayed limbs which constitute a menace to the safety of the public and may employ the necessary labor for such purpose and expend public funds for that purpose.
