§ 30-1. Preamble.

Nothing in this chapter shall be construed as giving to any person any kind of right, interest or easement in any street, alley, sidewalk or public way of the town for any sign, or other encroachment of any type whatsoever, whether the same be erected prior to or subsequent to the adoption of the ordinance from which this article is derived, whether the same be attached to the street, alley, sidewalk or public way or is hanging over the same or is a portable or temporary display. It is expressly understood and provided that the owner, lessee or custodian of such sign, or other encroachment is a mere licensee and subject to the will of the council and that the sign, or other encroachment in question shall be removed at any time upon receipt by the owner, lessee or custodian on ten days' written notice from the town council ordering the removal of same. Should the recipient of such notice fail to comply therewith, he shall be charged with a Class 2 misdemeanor and punished by a fine of not more than $1,000.00, provided such penalty shall not exceed the penalty prescribed by law for like offense. The town manager shall forthwith remove the sign or encroachment at the expense of the owner. Each day of noncompliance shall constitute a separate offense.
