(A) Each property or lot upon which a residential unit for either a single-family home or duplex is to be constructed, reconstructed, remodeled or to which an addition is to be built, shall have on site a receptacle or container for the collection of debris that is a minimum of three yards in size, and arrangements shall be made for the collection and removal of debris from the construction site by a commercial hauler of solid waste authorized to do business in the City. The Building Official may waive this requirement if the building site already has established solid waste disposal service and the amount of debris anticipated to be generated by the construction activity can be handled by the established service.

(B) Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the applicant for the permit shall show proof to the Building Official of arrangements for the delivery and placement on site of a receptacle or container for collection of debris as required by subsection (A) of this section.

(D) The applicant for the building permit for construction, reconstruction or remodeling of a single-family residence or duplex, or the addition to a single-family residence or duplex, the owner and/or any person in control of the property upon which the construction, reconstruction, or remodeling is occurring, is responsible to ensure that no placement of concrete, earth, rock, gravel, mortar, bricks, block or other heavy material in the receptacle or container for collection of debris shall occur which would prevent removal of debris from the container by the solid waste hauler who provided the container.

(E) No receptacle or container for debris required by this section shall be used for disposal of concrete, earth, rock, gravel, mortar, bricks, block or other material which would prevent removal of debris from the container by the solid waste hauler who provided the container.
