When you move into a city you have to assume you are voluntarily giving up your rights to behave as you wish with your self and your property. You lose the right to do what you want on your property in order to significantly reduce friction (or potential damage) with all the other close people. For example, almost all cities make it illegal to fire firearms within the city limits. Whereas if you lived in the country there'd be no such law and more importantly in terms of causation, no people likely to be impacted by it.

Cities are tradeoffs. This particular municipal code may be a bit honerous but it's not exceptional in it's reasoning.
