§ 23-46. Limitations on amounts of refuse per collection; commercial establishments; multifamily properties.

(a)

When refuse from commercial establishments exceeds four supercans per collection, the operator of such business is required to remove and dispose of such excess at the expense of the operator.

(b)

When refuse from multifamily properties, exclusive of properties owned and operated by a re-development and housing authority organized pursuant to Housing Authorities Law (Code of Virginia, § 36-1 et seq.), exceeds four supercans per collection, the owner or the managing agent designated for such property shall be required to remove and dispose of any and all excess at the owner's or agent's expense, except where such owner or managing agent has made prior contractual arrangements for payment of the cost for collection of excess refuse by the City. Such contractual arrangements shall be upon reasonable terms and conditions as may be determined by the Director of Public Works and shall specifically provide for a monthly charge as set forth in Appendix A to this Code over and above the limit of four supercans per collection and shall further provide for the payment of a security deposit in the total amount as set forth in Appendix A to this Code by each owner or managing agent as a precondition to City collection of such excess refuse. Any security deposit paid under this subsection and any funds previously paid as a security deposit for City collection of excess refuse shall be deposited into the general fund of the City. Upon termination of contractual arrangements for City collection of excess refuse, any amount due and owing the City shall be deducted from the amount of the security deposit, and the remainder shall be refunded to the contracting party.
