Legal Documents of Rocky Top

Where alleys are used by the city's refuse collectors, containers shall be placed on or within six feet (6') of the alley line in such a position as not to intrude upon the traveled portion of the alley. Where streets are used by the city's refuse collectors, containers shall be placed adjacent to and back of the curb, or adjacent to and back of the ditch or street line if there is no curb, at such times as shall be scheduled by the city for the collection of refuse therefrom. As soon as practicable after such containers have been emptied they shall be removed by the owner to within, or to the rear of, his premises and away from the street line until the next scheduled time for collection. Those residents who wish to claim a handicap pick up, must come by city hall and complete a waiver form. The waiver form if approved by the sanitation committee shall allow the resident to have their refuse picked up closer to their residence and not within compliance of § 17-104. An annual review of each waiver may be required for each applicant. (Ord. #477, Nov. 2012)
