(A) For the purpose of this chapter, "garbage" shall mean all putrescible wastes, including animal and vegetable matter and recognizable industrial by-products, but excluding sewage, human wastes, dirt and rocks.

(E) All dumpsters shall be placed in rear yard areas, side yard areas or in alleys. No dumpster shall occupy space in a street right-of-way or in an area so as to be an eyesore or aesthetic blight to the area. Where practical, dumpsters shall be landscaped. The size of dumpster, number of pickups weekly and the location of receptacle shall be determined by the Service Director and confirmed by the City Manager. Should the customer disagree with these decisions, he may appeal directly to the Council which shall be the final arbiter in making these necessary determinations.
