It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to operate a truck within the City for the purpose of collecting and removing garbage or refuse without that truck being first issued a permit. The Mayor of the City shall inspect or cause to be inspected each vehicle for which a permit is sought and determine to his satisfaction that the vehicle is in good operating condition, that it is constructed so as to prevent the littering of the streets in the event of refuse collection, and that it is constructed to prevent spillage or dripping in the event of garbage collections. A separate permit shall be issued for each truck, and every such permit shall expire at the end of each calendar year. (Ord. 88-22. Passed 11-21-88.)
