In no case shall more than $500 be recovered as damages for an injury resulting from such a defect or dangerous place. No action shall be maintained against the city for damages growing out of such an injury unless the claimant first gives written notice to the council within 180 days after the injury is sustained, stating specifically the time when, the place where, and the circumstances under which it was sustained, and that he will claim damages therefor of the city an amount which he specifies. But in no event shall the action be started until 30 days have elapsed after the presentation of this notice to the council.
