755. Whenever the municipal inspector deems it necessary, every owner or occupant of land on a front road, and every person interested in a by-road must, between 1 December in each year and 1 April following, keep all fences erected by the side of municipal roads, and all fences forming an angle with the fences of such roads, to a distance of 7,50 m, levelled to within 60 cm of the ground.

This provision does not apply to hedges, picket fences more than 7,50 m distant from the road, nor to those which cannot be taken down or put up again without great expense, nor to fences erected in the woods.

Nevertheless, the owners or occupants of land who maintain the fences along any front road, not being that on which they are obliged to work, must pay to the person bound to maintain such road, the excess of work occasioned by the fact that, as such fence cannot be taken down, the person liable for the work on such road has additional labour.

When fences have been so taken down, the municipal inspector may compel the same persons to put them up again, at such time as he shall fix.
