§ 9-171 FINDINGS.
   The county council finds that unwanted and unsolicited handbills are often left on private premises. These handbills create a litter problem when they are carried or deposited by the elements onto streets, sidewalks, and other public and private areas. In addition, the county finds that an accumulation of unsolicited handbills can be a signal to burglars and vandals that a residence is unoccupied.

DIVISION 8. TIRE BUSINESSES SELLING USED AND/OR WASTE TIRES
§ 9-185 FINDINGS.
   Greenville County Council finds that tires provide habitats for rodents, insects, and other vermin and serve as excellent breeding grounds for mosquitoes that carry diseases and present a fire hazard. Greenville County Council further finds that improperly stored used and waste tires are a nuisance that decreases property values and contributes to the decline of neighborhoods and the degradation of the environment. In order to provide for the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Greenville County, and to prevent the spread of disease and the creation of nuisances, Greenville County Council finds it necessary to regulate the storage, transportation, collection, processing, and disposal of used and waste tires.
