The Division of Public Works shall each week collect the refuse
and trash of:
A.
Residential units.
(2)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Town will provide customary residential
trash pick-up for the residential units of Village Green at North
Andover Condominium Trust, which are located on duly accepted public
ways. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Town will provide customary
residential trash pickup for the owner-occupied Townhouse Homes of
Andrew Circle. Townhouse Homes is a nonprofit organization of eight
residential units per building (three buildings total).
B.
Each building used for commercial, business or industrial purposes
where the amount of refuse produced is no more than eight thirty-gallon
barrels per week and the building is not a commercial, business or
industrial complex.
Service will be provided only if the refuse and trash are placed
on the side of the highway in front of said residence or multiple
dwelling or building.
Any building or aggregation of buildings (such as a shopping
mall, industrial park, office complex or other like development) containing
four or more businesses, industries or commercial enterprises shall
be deemed to constitute a commercial, business or industrial complex
for purposes of this article if legal title to the building or aggregation
of buildings is in single, joint or common ownership.
It shall be the duty of each owner of a multiple-dwelling building or apartment or condominium complex containing nine living units or more and each owner of a building utilized for commercial, business or industrial purposes which does not qualify for trash pickup under the criteria set forth in § 160-1B to cause to be removed at his own cost and expense all refuse and trash produced therein.
To maintain compliance with the state solid waste facility regulation
310 CMR 19.017, the Town of North Andover enacts a mandatory bylaw
which states that the following will not be allowed in the garbage,
rubbish and refuse/trash, and the Town of North Andover directs its
contracted waste hauler or any party responsible for municipal waste
pickup not to pick up visible recycling at curbside, and these items
will include the items in the following subsections:
A.
Single-resin
narrow-necked plastic. All narrow-necked plastic containers of any
resin type. In narrow-necked containers, the diameter of the opening
is smaller than the diameter of the base (e.g., a soda bottle is "narrow-necked,"
but a yogurt container is not).
B.
Recyclable
paper. All paper, cardboard, and paperboard products (e.g., office
paper, newspaper, unwaxed cardboard and cereal boxes), excluding tissue
paper, toweling, paper plates, cups, and other low-grade paper products
which become unusable to paper mills as a result of normal intended
use (e.g., used paper towels).
C.
Cathode
ray tubes (CRTs). Any intact, broken, or processed glass tube used
to provide the visual display in televisions, computer monitors and
certain scientific instruments such as oscilloscopes. (310 CMR 19.006)
