The Commissioner of Public Works is hereby authorized
to establish a program at such site and under such regulations as
he or she deems appropriate to allow residents and property owners
of the City of Cohoes to dispose of certain household items by depositing
them at said site. The items enumerated in a "Schedule of Household
Items Eligible for Collection," which shall be on file in the Department
of Public Works, are eligible for acceptance under this program upon
payment of the fee set forth in said schedule. Transport of said items
to the location designated for deposit shall be the sole responsibility
of the individual or property owner.
The Commissioner of Public Works is authorized
to add to the items enumerated in the Schedule of Household Items
Eligible for Collection and to levy a fee based on the weight of the
item so added (which item shall be boxed or bound as may be required
by the Commissioner of Public Works), in the amount set by the Commissioner
and approved by the Board of Managers.
[1]
Editor’s Note: The current Fee Schedule, as amended
7-28-2016 by Ord. No. 5-2016, is on file in the City offices.
The rules and regulations promulgated by the
Commissioner of Public Works regarding the establishment of this program
shall have the same force and effect as if they were specifically
set forth in this article. The Commissioner or his designee may reject
any item offered for disposal if, in his/her sole discretion, the
acceptance of said item is inappropriate for any reason.
Any person who violates any provision of this
article or the rules and regulations duly made pursuant thereto shall
be subject to a fine of not less than $50 for the first violation;
of not less than $250 for the second violation; of not less than $500
for the third violation; and is further, upon conviction or entry
of a plea of guilty thereto, barred from further participation in
the program.
