Property owners must keep their landscaping maintained to ensure there is no obstruction of the view of traffic or traffic signs and signals. Trees, hedges, and bushes should be trimmed back to allow a clear view of oncoming traffic, stop signs, and street lighting.

Sidewalks also must be kept clear of landscaping and other objects that may block the way of pedestrians. Frequent violations include trash cans left on the sidewalk and portable basketball hoops blocking pedestrian right-of-way. These items must be placed so they do not encroach or impede sidewalks or public right-of-way. Code prohibits blowing landscaping debris into public roadways.
