A. It is hereby declared to be unlawful and a public nuisance to cause or permit any persistent odors, which are offensive to individuals of normal sensitivity and which adversely impact or unreasonably interfere with the use and enjoyment of property, to emanate across any parcel or property line.

B. An odor shall be presumed offensive to individuals of normal sensitivity if the city receives three or more verified complaints of a persistent odor emanating across a property line from individuals representing separate residences or places of business within the city within a one-month time span concerning an odor emanating from a single source. Nothing in this section shall be deemed to require three complaints before the city may initiate enforcement action.
