§ 15.01.185. Dumpster/trash enclosure.


Latest version.
  • Dumpster/trash enclosures shall be constructed per the approved city standard detail. Unless a given site is specifically exempted by the land use authority for a given zone, every commercial or multi-family site shall include a minimum of one enclosure(s) or more as appropriate in number to the uses proposed. Where a given use is for a food, automotive or similar parts store, automotive repair, or similar greasy waste or discharge use, the dumpster enclosure shall include a frost-free culinary water spigot and a discharge drain which flows through a grease trap prior to discharge to a city sanitary sewer facility. In such cases, site shall be graded such that only discharge from the enclosure shall be allowed into the sewer system. Dumpster enclosures with connections to the sanitary sewer system shall either contain a roof system to prevent storm drainage from passing to the sanitary sewer or site shall be billed by the city monthly as a part of the city utility bill for the average annual treatment cost of the drainage into the sewer system at the city standard rate per gallon.
