Sec. 10-20. Enclosures.


(a) Enclosures shall be designed, located and constructed in accordance with city standard construction details and pursuant to the direction of planning commission of the city. All dumpsters shall be situated on a poured concrete platform. If the director of public works determines that a noncity maintained road could be damaged by garbage trucks or could be unsafe for them to travel, or if the location poses a threat to the safety of collection crews, collection equipment, or private property, then an alternative pick up location will be assigned. If an alternative site cannot be found, then the director of public works reserves the right to discontinue service.
(b) Enclosures shall be maintained so as to continually function as originally designed and constructed. The property owner, tenant and/or person in control or possession of the property shall be responsible for maintaining the enclosure in a manner as to be clean, deodorized and with all trash securely contained in containers so as to prevent littering or animal/insect infestation, and to maintain safe and clear access to and through the premises for the purpose of collecting refuse. The property owner, tenant and/or person in control or possession of the property shall be responsible for the removal of snow/ice and the prevention of obstructive vehicle parking near the enclosure. Violation of this section shall constitute a municipal infraction punishable by a fine not to exceed four hundred dollars ($400.00). (Ord. No. 99-52, § 1, 7-15-99)
