§ 9-35.030. Exemptions

A.

The City recognizes the existence of hardships because of existing improvements that may interfere with siting required discards and recyclable materials collection areas. Therefore, exemptions to this Chapter may be granted provided the Director determines that a minimum amount of space has been provided for collection of recyclable discards generated on-site to protect public health, safety and welfare. A minimum amount of space is defined as that which is allotted to accommodate a typical bin of 42 inches wide, 60 inches high, and 75 inches long, with a vertical clearance of 110 inches.

B.

The Director may also grant an exemption to this Chapter when use of the proposed development will not generate a minimum of one, bi-weekly three-cubic yard bin collection of recyclable material to necessitate the amount of space required by this Chapter or when insufficient space is available to site new enclosures in existing development projects.

C.

A proposed project utilizing residential curbside pickup for the collection of recyclable discards shall be automatically exempt from the requirements of this Chapter.
