No garbage shall be burned at any time.
No person shall permit any wagon or vehicle used for the collection
or removal of garbage, swill, offal or other substance to stand in
the streets or other public places within the limits of this Borough
at any time, except when being loaded.
Nothing in this article shall be construed as prohibiting any
person, himself or his servants, from removing any garbage, swill,
offal or other waste matter from his own premises without a license;
provided, however, that a permit is first obtained from the Borough
Clerk and the requirements of this article in all respects are complied
with, and provided, further, that no one shall remove without permission
from this Board the body of a dead animal which has, within a period
of 10 days before death, bitten anyone or which is suspected of having
bitten anyone.
