The owner, agent, lessee, tenant and occupant of every dwelling, food establishment or public place or other premises in the Borough where garbage, refuse, rubbish and ashes may accumulate shall provide and keep on the premises suitable receptacles with tight-fitting covers for receiving and holding garbage and decaying refuse or matter of any kind.
