3-8-7: LIMITATION ON NUMBER OF LICENSES:
   A.   Purpose: A limitation on the number of mixed Municipal solid waste or recyclable material collectors in the City is necessary for the following reasons: more trucks use more fuel, create wear and tear on City streets, create more pollution and noise; more collectors create an increased risk to public safety, decrease efficiency, and increase rates and energy costs.
   B.   Limitation On Licenses:
      1.   No more than five (5) Class A licenses may be in force at any time.
      2.   There is no limit on the number of Class B licenses.
      3.   The City shall maintain a list of persons who want a Class A license. Names on the list shall be kept in the chronological order in which they are received except that persons already having a Class B license shall be placed at the top of the list for a Class A license. If a license becomes available the first person on the list will be notified and shall have ten (10) days to apply for a license. If the person does not apply, the name shall be removed from the list and the process will be repeated. (Ord. 686, sec. 1, 6-18-2001; amd.
