Containers shall be closed by an attached cover at all times.
B. All containers shall be kept at a location easily accessible by collection vehicles and refuse producers. Refuse containers shall be kept away from overhead utility lines and structures with projections to facilitate pick up. Container siting shall also comply with International Building and Fire Codes.

E. In cases where a refuse container enclosure is required, the container shall be enclosed by a not greater than eight foot (8') high barrier fence with a minimum gate opening of nine feet (9') wide. The fence enclosure shall have a minimum clearance of two feet (2') away from the refuse container.
