No person shall transport by any means garbage or other refuse from any dwelling, residence, place of business or other site to and deposit such material in, around or on top of refuse receptacles placed along public streets or in other public places. Furthermore, no person shall transport such garbage or refuse to and deposit such material in, around, or on top of refuse containers on private property of another person or public property unless the owner or person in control of said property consents to the deposit of such material. Refuse containing items bearing the name of a person and found deposited in, on or around the refuse containers of other persons or on the property of other persons or on public property shall be presumed to have been deposited by the person whose name appears on the item; but such presumption may be rebutted. This section shall not be construed as to prevent pedestrians or motorists from depositing refuse generated during the normal course of walking or motoring into refuse containers made available to the public for the deposit of said refuse. Furthermore, this section shall not be construed as preventing persons authorized in section 10-1-16 of this chapter from depositing recyclable material in a recycling drop off facility in conformity with the provisions of said section 10-1-16 of this chapter. Additionally this section shall not be construed to allow persons owning or having interest in a property to transport solid waste, or other materials from that property to another property with the purpose and/or intent that said materials will be collected and disposed of by the City and/or to avoid paying the required fees associated with disposal of said materials.
