[Adopted 10-7-1935]
It is hereby ordered that hereafter it shall
be unlawful in the Town of Wilton to dump, or to transport on any
highway for the purpose of dumping, or permit the dumping within 200
feet of a public highway of ashes, rubbish, refuse or junk or of garbage
without the special permission of the Selectmen and upon reasonable
conditions prescribed by them and that for each violation of this
ordinance a penalty not to exceed $25 is hereby imposed.
This ordinance shall not be deemed to make unlawful
the disposition by a property owner of his ashes, domestic garbage,
rubbish, refuse or junk upon his own property; and shall not apply
to ashes unmixed with other substances, nor to dumping which constitutes
or creates a nuisance or source of filth injurious to public health.
