A. The owner or tenant designees of multi-family dwelling premises are required to subscribe to and maintain mandatory non-organic residential recycling services for each individual household in the dwelling. An exception may be granted at the discretion of the Director if it is determined there is not sufficient storage space for the containers at the multi-family dwelling premises.
B. All businesses are required to subscribe to and maintain mandatory non-organic recycling services if such businesses generate greater than or equal to four (4) cubic yards of solid waste per week. If the solid waste collector transports containers of solid waste generated by the business to a material recovery facility for the purposes of mixed waste processing, thereby separating non-organic recyclables from the mixed waste and recycling the non-organic recyclables, the business will be deemed to be subscribing to non-organic recycling services.
C. The disposal of garbage in containers designated for organic waste recycling or processing or for source separated or single-stream recycling is prohibited.
D. The solid waste collector is prohibited from providing solid waste service to businesses subject to the mandatory non-organic recycling requirements without providing a non-organic recycling program that includes the collection of a container no less than thirty-two (32) gallon capacity, provided by the solid waste collector, at least one (1) time per week. The only exceptions to this requirement are the following:
1. The solid waste collector provides a mixed waste processing program to the business in which solid waste containers are taken to a material recovery facility for processing to remove non-organic recyclable materials.
2. The solid waste collector may verify the owner or tenant designee has been granted an exception to the mandatory non-organic recycling program from the Director. (Ord. 20-2218, § 4, 2021; Ord. 15-2130, § 1 (part), 2015; Ord. 2094, § 2, 2012)
