§ 20-20. Collection—Generally.

(a)

Garbage. It shall be the duty of the head of every family occupying or in possession of any house, building, flat, apartment, tenement, or dwelling place in the city, which is a private residence, and for which a container for garbage has been provided to place, or cause to be placed, such container on the rear of the lot of such premises, for the removal of the contents of the container, at such times and in such manner as the department of sanitation of the city may direct. It shall be unlawful for any person to place any such container in any alley within the city, and in all cases where garbage is to be collected from the alley, the container shall be placed entirely within the lot line and adjacent to, but not in, the alley. If a fence without a gate separates the alley from the yard where the container is located, a platform for the container shall be so constructed that its top shall be level with the top of the fence. All such platforms must be constructed entirely within the property line, and not in the alley.

(b)

Brush. All brush to be collected shall be placed between the curbline and the sidewalk.
