§ 46-217. Developer's duties; failure to comply.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    It shall be the duty of the developer to maintain all vacant property owned by him in an approved subdivision within the city limits in a manner so as not to create any fire or health hazard through accumulation of debris, discarded building materials, weed growth, or any other condition creating a fire or health hazard through a lack of maintenance. In the event the city or county health inspector or the city fire marshal deems the property to be a health or fire hazard, states so in writing to the developer, and requests that the property be cleaned of all such materials and/or weeds, and the developer fails to do so within ten days, the city shall have the right to clear the property with its own forces.

    (b)

    A record of the manhours and equipment time used shall be kept for a total cost, which will be payable to the city by the subdivider owning the property. The public works official shall be furnished this information and shall issue no further permits to the developer until payment is received for the work done by the city in cleaning the property.
