(A) Except as may be provided in §§ 91.06 through 91.08, on the failure, neglect, or refusal of any owner, tenant or contract purchaser so notified to cut, destroy, or remove weeds, grass or other deleterious unhealthful growths, other noxious matters or public nuisances growing, lying or located on such property or on the sidewalk abutting these areas within ten days after the giving of notice to the property owner or occupant as provided herein, the city may proceed to enforce the provisions of this section and carry out such actions necessary to cure the public nuisance.
(B) In the event city employees are used to enforce this chapter, the hourly rate shall be $100 per hour per employee for the first violation and said rate shall increase by $50 per hour per employee for subsequent violations. In addition to the hourly rate, all costs involved with the disposal of any material removed from the property shall be assessed to the property owner. This hourly rate may be adjusted from time to time by the Council by resolution in order to be assured that the costs of such cutting, removal or destroying are completely paid for by the landowner, and not the taxpayer.
