Multi-family dwellings will be serviced by the city by a container-type refuse truck; therefore, these locations will be required to store their garbage, trash, or other waste in container sizes of six or eight cubic yards equivalent to their needs. Multi-family dwellings with existing three or four cubic yard dumpsters will be allowed to be serviced with existing three or four cubic yard dumpsters as long as they are compatible with front loader refuse trucks. Compactors or roll-out carts are an option in accordance with the provisions of subsections (C) and (D) of Section 6-331. All multi-family dwellings will be required to install their own concrete platform for these containers. All multi-family dwellings will be required to install recycling centers with the required number of 96 gallon containers except that the city will install recycling centers at multi-family dwellings approved for construction prior to July 1, 2010. The recycling centers must have city standard fencing, concrete pads, signage and containers. Any request for alternative design must be approved by the Director of Public Works or designee. The location of these containers will be chosen with regard to the best interest of public safety and to where the city refuse trucks can service them with the least maneuvering. Final approval as to the location will be made by the Director of Public Works or designee.
