The City shall collect residential household waste from all residential dwelling units as defined in this chapter. The City, subject to City Manager’s authorization and approval, may collect residential household waste itself or it may franchise the authority to collect residential solid waste to one or more contractors through the use of either competitive bidding or negotiated contracts. Such contracts shall also provide for the collection of solid waste from public buildings and facilities, as determined by the City Manager. The Public Works Director may, subject to the City Manager’s authority, divide the City into two or more solid waste collection territories and award an exclusive collection franchise to a contractor for each territory for a determined length of time.
