this is what the city code states: Every owner, operator or lessee of an industrial and/or commercial business shall keep the containers in a trash enclosure or building. All new trash enclosures or buildings constructed in compliance with this provision, and all major alterations to such existing trash enclosures and buildings, shall be constructed in compliance with the provisions relating to trash enclosure structures in subsection 11-6-3B of this code. Containers shall not be filled to the extent that the garbage or other refuse placed therein can drop or spill therefrom. (Ord. 737, 7-16-2003)
It was enacted in 2003 – the school has not been there that long, so why was this not enforced against the previous owner?
