(A) Compostable materials such as grass trimmings, wood waste, leaves, weeds and other garden refuse may be placed in a compost pile; provided, that it is enclosed in a fence, box or other barrier or container equal in height to the compost pile and in a manner to prevent material from being windblown. Said fence or box shall not exceed one hundred (100) square feet in area and shall not exceed five feet (5') in height. The container shall be set back from the lot line equal to the setback for accessory buildings and shall not be located in the front yard or on a drainage or utility easement. The depositing of garbage; pet waste, meat scraps or other materials that may attract animals or vermin to the compost pile or which may produce an obnoxious odor shall be prohibited.
(B) Any compost pile shall be maintained in accordance with Illinois department of energy and natural resources pamphlet entitled "A Homeowner's Guide To Recycling Yard Wastes" (reference numbers LENR/RN-89103 and STA-9-50M-8-89) as hereafter may be amended, from time to time, which is incorporated herein by reference and forms a part hereof. In the event of a conflict between said pamphlet and the provisions of this code, the code shall supersede the pamphlet and shall govern the maintenance of compost piles to the extent of the conflict.
