Whenever any railroad company or person is ordered, in writing, by the city council or its designee, to repair or put in proper condition any part of the paving or permanent improvements laid within, between, or along any track, such repairs and the putting of the street in proper condition, so as not to interfere with traffic or the use of the street, shall be done by the companies or persons using the tracks within the time specified by giving written notice to the city council or its designee. The costs of maintaining and repairing such areas shall be borne by the railroad company or private owner.
