§ 66-42. Placing containers for collection.

(a)

If the house, building or premises from which garbage is to be collected and removed is adjacent to an alley or easement designated for garbage collection, the owner, occupant, tenant or lessee of such premises shall place the disposable containers containing garbage or trash adjacent to the alley or easement so designated in a manner that provides easy accessibility to the collector from the outside of any fence or hedge that may surround the premises. If it is not practicable to collect and remove the garbage from an alley or easement, or if there is no alley or easement adjacent to the premises, the owner, occupant, tenant or lessee of the premises shall place the disposable container at the curbline, at the houseline so as to be visible from the street, or at such point on the premises that the director of public works or his or her designee shall find and designate as being the most accessible for collecting and removing.

(b)

Disposable containers of garbage shall not be placed for pickup, excluding alley pickup, earlier than 6:00 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the day of collection. Residents with special considerations or physical limitations may be allowed individual exceptions to the time or location garbage is placed for pickup by the city, with prior written approval obtained from the director of public works.
