Amendments to Chapter 585 Solid Waste Regarding the Regulation of Temporary Dumpsters 01:38:46

The current ordinance addressing temporary dumpsters was amended last year, but some concerns have been raised regarding the ordinance and some changes are necessary. The ordinance limits the amount of time that dumpsters are permitted on a property. This presents compliance challenges for commercial and multi-family properties that require long-term dumpster use beyond the 90-day limit. Changes would need to commercial properties and/or those multi-family properties that use dumpsters year-round for refuse collection as well as larger commercial construction projects. Concerns have also been raised regarding residential projects and applying stricter limit. Dumpsters tied to building permits could be limited to a total of 90 days per calendar year to prevent extended or consecutive use. This would prevent consecutive building permits resulting in a dumpster on site for extended periods. Long-term remodels could accommodate multiple shorter placements within that limit or a variance process could be used in those circumstances, allowing review by an appointed board with public input. Rick Brown, Director of Planning, will be in attendance to discuss his proposed amendments.
