Full Breakdown
City Code § 22-53 makes it unlawful to urinate or defecate in a public place, in a place open to public view, or on another person's private property without consent: the only exception is a place specifically provided for that purpose, like a restroom. The section sits in chapter 22's nuisance article and isn't tied to intoxication or a specific zone, so it applies citywide, including the US-192 tourist corridor within city limits. Because chapter 22's noise-specific fine schedule in § 1-22(b)(8) doesn't list this offense, it defaults to the Code's general penalty: up to $500 and each instance can be charged separately.
Violations & Fines
No listed fine schedule applies, so § 1-22(a)'s general penalty controls: a fine up to $500.00 or imprisonment, with each violation treated as a separate offense.
