This section is included in your selections.

A. Customers shall keep their refuse containers clean to prevent an odor nuisance, and in good repair. Containers cracked or rusted and therefore not water tight, without two handles, or without a tight-fitting lid, are not acceptable.

B. A contractor shall keep all refuse containers owned by him clean inside and out to prevent an odor nuisance. A contractor shall also place a violation tag, identifying the violation, on refuse containers owned by customers found to be in violation of this section. Containers so tagged by the contractor shall not be emptied until the violation is corrected by the customer.

C. Customers with containers not kept in good repair and so identified by tagging with the contractor shall correct the violation within five days of the tagging. Failure to comply with the tagged notice to repair or replace an unacceptable refuse container shall be unlawful. [Ord. 634 § 1, 2016; Ord. 51 § 1, 1996.]
