A non-putrescible, dry waste compactor permit, provided by the city public works director, will allow non-putrescible, dry waste to be accumulated for a period of not more than thirty-one days unless specifically noted in writing on the permit. In no case shall the accumulation period for non-putrescible, dry waste exceed sixty-two days.

The requirements for this permit are:

A. The non-putrescible, dry waste must be contained in an industry standard type, electrical or hydraulically operated, compactor unit;

B. The compactor must be legally sited and maintained;

C. The only waste contained in the compactor will be non-putrescible, dry waste.

In order to receive a non-putrescible, dry waste compactor permit that exceeds the baseline thirty-one day limit, the owner or person in charge of the compactor shall provide any and all documentation, as required by the public works director that substantiates the extenuating circumstances supporting the need for exceeding the baseline thirty-one day limit. No matter what documentation is provided, the public works director is not obligated to approve a time extension beyond the thirty-one day baseline limit.

If at any time during the permitted period the owner or person in charge of the compactor makes any material changes in the operation of the compactor, materials contained in the compactor, or any other default in the above requirements, said owner or person in charge is required to notify the city public works director in writing withdrawing their request for permit or modifying the current permit. Failure to do so will be cause for revocation of any existing permit for that compactor and/or property.

The non-putrescible, dry waste compactor permit is valid for three years from the date of approval. At the end of this period, the owner or person in charge of the compactor shall reapply for renewal of their permit by submitting a new permit application. If the permit is not renewed, or revoked for any reason, the non-putrescible, dry waste accumulating on their property will be subject to the period of removal requirements as outlined in Section 14-2. An appropriate processing fee may be established by resolution of the council. (Ord. No. 2413 (NCS), § 1.)
