If the director of a designee decides that the receptacle facilities for the multiple-dwelling residence are adequate and do not present a hazard to the public health and safety, a permit to exempt the residence from the dumpster requirement shall be issued. This permit may be revoked if, at any time, the receptacle facilities become inadequate for the residence or present a hazard to the public health and safety.
