When ice is so formed upon any sidewalk that it cannot be removed, such person shall keep the same sprinkled with sand, salt or other abrasives in a manner as to prevent the sidewalk from being dangerous for pedestrian travel, and as soon as weather permits, cause such sidewalk to be thoroughly cleaned. Failure to remove snow and ice accumulations shall be deemed a violation of this section and punishable by the payment of a forfeiture provided in §1-4 of this Code. [Amended 10-13-2004 by Ord. No. 3226] (B) In the event of the failure of any person to clean or sprinkle sidewalks as provided in sub. (A) above, the Director of Public Works shall cause such sidewalks to be cleaned or sprinkled at his discretion. He shall keep an accurate account of the expenses of removing the snow and ice and cause a reasonable charge to be inserted in the tax roll against the property and the same shall be collected in the manner as other special assessment taxes upon real estate as provided in §66.0907, Wis. Stats. § 1-4 VIOLATIONS AND PENALTIES. [Amended 4-24-2014 by Ord. No. 3544] (A) General Penalty.
