§ 12.24.230. Protection for sidewalks to be driven over.

A.

Before any vehicle shall be driven or operated over any sidewalk or curb at any point other than where a driveway has been constructed, such sidewalk and curb at the point where the vehicle is to be driven or operated over the same, shall be adequately protected by wood planking in such a way as to fully protect the sidewalk or curb from danger or injury. The outside ends of all planks so used shall be evenly adjusted and beveled in such manner as to render passage thereover as easy and safe as possible. All portions of the street and sidewalk so protected at all times shall be kept open and clean and passable for pedestrians.

B.

Such planks shall be maintained only during the life of the permit issued therefor. The maintenance of planks over the curb and sidewalk after the expiration of the permit shall be unlawful, and is declared to be a public nuisance and may be abated by the city at any time thereafter by removing the same without notice to the permittee, and the cost and expense of removing the planks shall be collected from the permittee in any manner authorized by law.
