[Adopted 12-14-1999 by Ord. No. 682 (Sec.
10-4 of the 1993 Code)]
The owner or operator of any commercial establishment
which receives a license or permit from the Town Council and where
swill, garbage or refuse accumulates shall provide at such establishment
a covered container, which does not leak, for the deposit of all swill,
garbage and refuse. The container shall have a cover, which shall
be fully closed at all times except when refuse is deposited or removed.
No excess refuse may protrude from said container. If deemed necessary
and feasible by the Building Official, all containers shall be placed
on either a concrete or asphalt pad with an adequate water supply
and drainage available for washing the container and the pad.
Unless the Building Official determines that
it is not feasible, any container which is visible from the street
and which holds perishable food waste shall be located within an opaque
fenced area, which fence must be at least one foot higher than the
highest point of the container on three sides. The fourth side shall
have a properly hinged access door, which shall be kept closed at
all times except for the depositing or removal of refuse. All containers
holding perishable food waste shall be located more than 30 feet from
the nearest residence unless the Building Official determines it is
not feasible to do so.
