Hereafter it shall be unlawful for any person,
partnership or corporation to deposit any rubbish of any kind, except
as created on the land, unless the person so using the land shall
first obtain a permit from the Board of Commissioners of the Township
of Ridley.
The application for such a permit shall describe
the location of the land, the name of the owner or owners and the
name of the person, partnership or corporation seeking permission
to make deposit of such materials.
[Amended 10-25-2000 by Ord. No. 1808]
The person, partnership or corporation receiving
this permit shall pay to the Township of Ridley, for deposit in the
treasury of the Township, the sum as set from time to time by resolution
of the Board of Commissioners for each year or fraction thereof.
The person, partnership or corporation to whom
such permit is granted shall, at his or their expense, keep such dump
leveled off and cleaned in a manner suitable to the Board of Commissioners,
and also prevent the same from catching on fire.
Such dump shall be inspected on the part of
the Township officers or the Board of Health, and the disregard of
any reasonable regulation shall be grounds to vacate or cancel the
permit.

and costs shall be imprisoned for a period not to exceed 30 days.
