§ 8.28.080 COLLECTION IN EMERGENCIES.
   In emergencies, such as the breakdown of equipment, or other unforeseen or unpreventable circum-stances, where in the judgment of the City Manager the particular situation justifies such action, the City Manager may issue limited or temporary permits to private persons or corporations to perform any of the services regulated by this chapter subject to such reasonable fees, charges and conditions as the circumstances may warrant and as the parties involved may agree upon; provided that such fees and charges received from or paid to any private persons or corporations under this section for any period exceeding twenty (20) days duration shall be approved by the City Council.
(Ord. 990, passed 7-23-96)
§ 8.28.090 HOURS OF COLLECTION.
   All solid waste and green waste collection or salvage from residential areas and areas immediately adjacent to residential areas shall be made between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., and collections from commercial and industrial locations may start at 5:00 a.m.; provided, however, that the peace and quiet of residential neighborhoods is not disrupted. The City Manager may require a permittee to change hours of operation in commercial and industrial areas if, in the City Manager's opinion, disruption of residential neighborhoods occurs. In the event that more than one (1) refuse collector and/or salvager is permitted to operate in the city, whether by area or premises, the City Manager may, in his or her discretion, require that all refuse collection and salvage activities take place on the same day of the week in the specified area in order to minimize the traffic in any given area.
(Ord. 990, passed 7-23-96)
§ 8.28.100 SOLID WASTE, GREEN WASTE AND RECYCLABLE MATERIAL COLLECTION — EXCEPTION.
   Permittees shall exercise all reasonable care and diligence in collection activities so as to prevent spilling, scattering or dropping solid waste, green waste and recyclable material, and shall immediately, at the time of occurrence, clean up any such spillage.
(Ord. 990, passed 7-23-96)
§ 8.28.110 SOLID WASTE, GREEN WASTE AND/OR RECYCLABLE MATERIAL RECEPTACLES.
   It shall be the duty of every tenant, lessee or occupant of any residential unit or commercial premises, the keeper of every apartment house and of every other person having solid waste, green waste and/or recyclable material, to provide without expense to the city and at all times, except on collection day, to keep within the building, or other approved location, in which any of the same may be situated sufficient numbers of containers, of a type and size approved by the City Council, specifically designed for the containment of solid waste, green waste and/or recyclable material, each of which shall have suitable bales or handles and a tight-fitting cover which shall prevent leakage or escape of odors, and which, cumulatively when filled within four (4) inches of the top shall contain all solid waste, green waste and/or recyclable material which would ordinarily accumulate on such premises between collections. The exterior of such receptacles, including covers, shall be kept clean from accumulated grease or decomposing materials. Except when placed in accordance with § 8.28.120 hereof for collection purposes, such receptacles shall be kept and maintained only in storage locations permitted by the Brea Zoning Ordinance, as the same presently exists or as may be amended from time to time, or as specified by use permit or other entitlement for use.
(Ord. 990, passed 7-23-96)
§ 8.28.120 PLACEMENT OF RECEPTACLES FOR COLLECTION.
   It shall be the duty of every person having charge and control of any residential unit or commercial premises to set out or place receptacles for the collection of refuse, rubbish, miscellaneous debris and combined rubbish and/or other solid waste, green waste and/or recyclables, as follows:
   Any receptacle for the purpose of reception and removal of solid waste, green waste and/or recyclables shall be placed at the curb in front of the dwelling, or the alley in the rear of each dwelling; except where alleys having access to streets at each end, exist in the rear of such premises, and from such premises collections shall be made from such alleys, provided that the permittee may designate some other location for the placement of receptacles when such placement will expedite collection, as approved by the City Manager.
(Ord. 990, passed 7-23-96)
§ 8.28.130 TIME AND DATE OF PLACEMENT OF RECEPTACLES.

   B.   Each owner, occupant, tenant or lessee of a residential unit or commercial premises shall maintain the same in a sanitary condition. If the containers or receptacles should not be emptied and the contents removed on the date and time scheduled by the permittee, such person shall immediately notify the permittee or the city, and it shall be the duty of the permittee to forthwith arrange for the collection and disposal thereof.
   C.   Refuse, trash, rubbish, green waste, recyclables and other solid waste which exceeds the limitations hereinabove set forth may, in the discretion of the permittee, be scheduled for special collection upon the application of the owner or occupant of the premises.

   D.   No person, other than the owner thereof, the owner's agents or employees or an officer or employee of the city or a permittee's agents or employees authorized for such purposes, shall tamper or meddle with any solid waste, green waste or recyclable material receptacle or the contents thereof, or remove the contents thereof, or remove any receptacle from the location where the same shall have been placed for collection.
