There shall be a reimbursement fee imposed upon any property
owner that requires the replacement of a municipally issued container
for recycling or solid waste purposes. The fee shall be the current
cost of replacement to the municipality and an administration charge
of $5. Upon the payment of the fee, a new container shall be issued.
The Township may either deliver the container or make it available
to the property owner at the Public Works building or any other location
established by the Director of Public Works.
As part of the Township's inspection process pursuant to certificates of habitability under Chapter
145 of this Code, rental inspections under Chapter
234 of this Code, or upon general inspection by the Zoning and Code Enforcement Officer, the inspector shall be authorized to issue a notice of the imposition of the reimbursement fee established herein. No certificate of habitability or rental inspection approval shall issue until the fee established herein is paid.
In the event of theft or similar exceptional circumstance, the
Township Committee may waive the fee required hereunder by way of
motion at a public meeting.
