indicated:

Relief from any of the provisions of this article alleged to be a hardship
may be obtained by submitting, in writing, to the Board of Trustees of the
Village, a statement detailing the hardship and the relief requested. The
Board of Trustees shall review the submission and render a decision thereon
within 30 days. If the hardship involves site location of a dumpster, a site
plan of the property shall be submitted showing the proposed site location
of the dumpster with the distance from property line or right-of-way and whatever
pertinent information the petitioner may feel will be relevant to his presentation.
The provisions of this article shall apply to the owner of the dumpster
as well as to the user or lessee of the container.
