The accumulation or existence of trash upon any lot, tract or parcel of land, or along paved/unpaved streets, alleys or public easements has been declared to constitute a nuisance. To assist in maintaining the general sanitation of the Town, it is the duty of every person using or occupying or having control of the occupancy of any premises located on a regularly established garbage route to notify the Town at the beginning of such occupancy, or having control of the occupancy, and request, accept and use the garbage pick up and collection service contracting with the Town. However, failure of any owner, rental agent or occupant of such premises to make such request shall not prevent nor in any way impair or impede the Town from adding the address of such premises to the proper garbage collection route records and providing such service and otherwise enforcing, by appropriate action, the regulatory measures. (2014 Code § 17-208; amd. 2018 Code)
