6.0208 DEPOSIT OF SNOW AND ICE ON STREETS PROHIBITED<br />
A. Deposit Prohibited<br />
It is unlawful for any person in clearing snow from parking lots, driveways,<br />
filling stations, garages, or other areas to pile or distribute snow, or cause<br />
snow to be piled or distributed, in a street or alley in any manner that tends<br />
to narrow the traveled portion of the street or prevent parking at the curb.<br />
Persons having such an accumulation of snow on private property shall be<br />
responsible for its handling at their own expense without depositing same in<br />
the right-of-ways, ditches, public streets, or alleys.<br />
B. City's Option to Clear<br />
The Department of <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Works</strong> may remove any such illegally piled,<br />
distributed, or deposited snow at any time. The property owner, from whose<br />
premises the snow originated, shall be billed a minimum of Thirty Dollars<br />
($30.00) on the first occasion that the Department of <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Works</strong> removes<br />
the snow. For subsequent violations, the Department of <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Works</strong> may<br />
remove the snow at the same cost multiplied by the number of times the<br />
Department of <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Works</strong> shall have removed the snow. This, however,<br />
does not remove the responsibility of the lessee, occupant, person having<br />
charge or owner from removing said snow, and said persons or entities shall<br />
retain responsibility for any liability accruing because of failure to remove<br />
said snow. The charges shall be set forth in a statement onto the City Clerk<br />
who, in turn, shall mail the same to the owner, occupant, or person in<br />
charge of the subject premises. If said statement is not paid in thirty (30)<br />
days thereafter, the statement shall be reported to the City Treasurer who<br />
shall enter the charges in the tax roll as a special tax against said lot or<br />
parcel of land, and the same shall be collected in all respects like other taxes<br />
upon real estate, or as provided under Wisconsin Statutes Section<br />
