The intent of this article is to require all
Town of Fallsburg construction projects of residential or commercial
construction to refrain from outside storage of construction trash
at work sites.
All commercial or residential construction sites,
whether a building permit is required or not, shall have suitable
containers on site at all times to accommodate any and all construction-related
debris.
Containers are to be covered each day and night
when not in use.
Storage of construction-related debris may be
inside the building.
[Amended 5-11-2010 by L.L. No. 7-2010]
Construction debris must be properly disposed
of at the landfill at the end of the construction project. All landfill
receipts must be made available upon request of the Code Enforcement
Officer and must be submitted to the Code Enforcement Office prior
to issuance of a certificate of occupancy.
No outside storage of construction or project-related
debris shall be permitted to accumulate, and all outside areas of
the work site must remain free of debris, trash and garbage and must
be cleaned regularly to ensure compliance.
[Amended 5-11-2010 by L.L. No. 7-2010]

order shall encompass the whole of the job site that is deemed in
violation.
