(A) A customer may request small commercial garbage service only if the customer will generate no more than three 30-gallon containers percollection day, or the commercial property is an existing commercial hand-load customer and there is no room on the property to place a commercial container. The request must be made in writing to city staff for review and approval or denial. Requests for small commercial garbage service which are denied may be appealed to the City Manager. Individual business customers who share a private drive, parking area, or may otherwise be considered a member of a business/commercial/industrial park shall be required to utilize commercial garbage containers and must provide an enclosure in accordance with the zoning ordinance. All multi-unit commercial buildings shall utilize commercial garbage containers and must provide an enclosure in accordance with the zoning ordinance. It is permissible for business/commercial/industrial park members or tenants of multi-unit commercial buildings to utilize the same commercial garbage container, provided the size and number of the container(s) and frequency of sendee are adequate to prevent unsightly or unsanitary conditions and the enclosure(s) is(are) constructed in compliance with the zoning ordinance. In the event of multi-phase business/commercial/industrial park developments, it is possible additional commercial garbage containers will be needed as development occurs, based on the amount of material generated from each of the customers. Prior to the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy any required enclosures shall be constructed and an enclosure built in compliance with the city’s zoning ordinance.

Once delivered, the containers shall be the only authorized means of placing small commercial garbage for collection on the appropriate service day.
