This chapter shall be known as the "Solid Waste, Litter, Hauler
Regulation and Village Borrow Policy Local Law of the Village of Camillus."
As used in this chapter, except in Article VI (Solid Waste Disposal - Regulation of Haulers), the following definitions shall have the meanings indicated:
The final solid waste results of the burning of organic material.
Solid waste resulting from construction, remodeling, repair
and demolition of structures, sidewalks, driveways and roads. Such
waste includes, but is not limited to, bricks, concrete and other
masonry materials, soil, rock, wood, wall coverings, plaster, drywall,
plumbing fixtures, nonasbestos insulation, roofing shingles, asphaltic
pavement, glass, plastics that are not sealed in a manner that conceals
other wastes, electrical wiring and components containing no hazardous
liquids and metals that are incidental to any of the above. Construction
and demolition material shall not include asbestos waste, garbage,
corrugated container board, electrical fixtures containing hazardous
liquids such as fluorescent light ballasts or transformers, carpeting,
furniture, appliances, tires, drums and containers and fuel tanks
(even if these materials result from the construction, remodeling,
repair and demolition of structures and roads). Specifically excluded
from the definition of "construction and demolition material" is solid
waste (including what otherwise would be construction and demolition
