§ 20-103.   Authorization of Collectors.
   1.   It shall be unlawful for any person, other than such persons as are duly authorized by the Borough, to collect and haul refuse of any nature within or from the Borough. Authorization to collect and dispose of refuse for persons other than oneself shall be accomplished by obtaining a license from the Borough, which license shall be issued only in those instances as hereinafter set forth.
   2.   The Borough Council shall, by its own resolution, designate one person as the Borough collector for the ensuing fiscal year. Said Borough collector shall have the exclusive right and obligation to collect and haul refuse within the Borough, except as follows:
      A.   Those business or commercial establishments whose collection requirements are such, in the opinion of the Borough Manager or his duly designated agent, as will cause undue hardship on the commercial establishment, or, where the Borough collector is not able to serve adequately the collection requirements of a business or commercial establishment. In such case, the Borough Manager or his duly designated agent may issue a license to said business or commercial establishment which license shall designate the person who may haul refuse from the named commercial establishment only.
      B.   Licenses to collectors shall be issued to only those persons who can provide satisfactory evidence that they have the necessary sanitary closed truck with which to collect and said license shall authorize collection by use of a sanitary close truck only. Said license shall be issued in an amount to be established, from time to time, by resolution of Borough Council and shall expire on the 31st day of December of each year, and shall be revocable at any time by the Borough Council. [Ord. 553]
   3.   The collection and disposal of refuse in the Borough shall be under the supervision of the Manager, subject to the supervision of the Sanitation Committee of the Borough Council. The Borough Manager is hereby vested with the power to make regulations in conformance with the purposes of this Part and not contrary thereto, but any regulations promulgated by said Borough Manager shall be effective only upon approval of the Borough Council.
