(Ord. 575 § 2 (part), 1964: prior code § 8453)

All private streets shall be maintained by the owners of property contiguous or adjacent thereto in such manner that adequate access by vehicular traffic is provided at all times so that fire, police, health and sanitation vehicles and public utility vehicles will have adequate turning area.
