Trash Bin Screening – UPDATE
This is an update to the previous notification letter that has been handed out to many of our local property and business owners concerning trash bin/dumpster enclosures. (Included below)
During the Warrenton Board of Alderman meeting, held on 09/01/2009, the agenda included discussion concerning trash bin/dumpster enclosures, and the concerns conveyed to them by their constituents, including, but not limited to, the cost of construction in a poor economy, size and/or area limitations due to location and property lines, and the Board of Alderman concluded that a more lenient time period should be observed, before the code enforcement commences, in order to be fair and offer our resident property and business owners more time to be able to accomplish the requirements of the code. Therefore applicable property owners required to enclose their trash bin/dumpster will be given until October first 2010 (10/01/2010) to comply with the municipal code.*
*Please note that any trash area that is a nuisance shall be addressed by the City of Warrenton.
