GENERAL REFERENCES
Maintenance of nonresidential property — See Ch. 162, Art. I.
Recycling — See Ch. 147.
There exists in the Town of Cromwell a facility known as a "transfer station" that is open to all residents of the Town for the purpose of transferring acceptable, burnable, non-burnable, and recyclable wastes generated in the Town to acceptable treatment and disposal sites. It is found that the proper safe and sanitary operation of the transfer station is essential to the health and welfare of the inhabitants of the Town of Cromwell.
The purpose of this chapter is to protect the public health, safety, morals and welfare by establishing minimum standards governing the maintenance, appearance, condition and operation of the transfer station. The use of the transfer station is intended to be limited to Cromwell residents and for residential noncommercial uses.
A. 
The dumping of hazardous, volatile, highly flammable or explosive wastes shall not be permitted.
B. 
Commercial wastes shall not be accepted.
Waste shall not be accepted at the transfer station without a permit. Annual permits shall be provided to Cromwell residents upon application to the Director of the Department of Public Works and upon satisfactory proof of residency. Proof of residency shall be verified by a Connecticut motor vehicle operator's license, through the Registrar of Voters' list of electors, by the most recent Grand List or other valid documentation.
The Director of Public Works shall designate a transfer station operator, who shall have the authority to control the placement of acceptable wastes within the limits of the transfer station. The transfer station operator shall have the authority to refuse to accept any and all wastes delivered to the transfer station that he deems unsuitable.
[Amended TC 6-16-2014]
