Every owner of an apartment in the city shall do the following to facilitate recycling in each building:
(a) Provide adequate and plainly marked single-stream recycling containers for recyclable material. Containers shall be stored on the premises in a screened location that is convenient for the deposit and collection of recyclables;
(b) Provide single-stream recycling service along with garbage service;
(c) Distribute written information to the building tenants at the time of leasing and at least annually thereafter regarding the established recycling program. If the landlord changes the garbage/recycling hauler, the landlord shall promptly provide tenants with recycling information relative to the new provider;
(d) Annually post a copy of the recycling information in a conspicuous place available to all residents, unless the physical structure of the premises does not allow for a common area which is available to all tenants. Any time the information is not easily legible, it shall be reposted; and
(e) City reserves the right to inspect for compliance. Failure to comply or provide information to tenants as above stated shall be considered a violation of the ordinance.
