(1) Cleanliness. Every occupant of a structure or part thereof shall keep that part of the structure or premises which that occupant occupies, controls, or uses in a clean, safe and sanitary condition. The owner and any occupant(s) shall be responsible for keeping the premises free of all weeds and prohibited plant growth, as defined in § 156.052(D), and shall ensure the removal, with reasonable promptness, of all debris, rubbish, garbage, litter, and other matter which may at any time accumulate upon the property, including any abutting sidewalks, to the center line of such street, easement or alley as are adjacent to or abut the premises. Nothing in this section shall invalidate a lease provision. The Metro Government hereby declares that plant growth in excess of the length permitted under § 156.052(D) materially affects public health and safety and creates an emergency condition which allows a landlord to enter immediately upon the premises of a tenant as provided by § 151.33(B) solely to remedy such condition. Any plant growth exceeding ten inches in height on land of three acres or more that abuts residential property, other than crops, trees, bushes, flowers or other ornamental plants, shall be at least 50 feet from the property line abutting the developed neighborhood.
(2) Disposal of rubbish. Every owner and/or occupant of a structure or part thereof shall dispose of all rubbish in a clean and sanitary manner by placing it in leak-proof approved containers, as required by § 156.055.
