Comments on Trash Container Storage and Screening Revised: June 21,2000 by Dennis Welsch Section 1010.11 of the Roseville City Code originally (pre-1999) stated: TRASH HANDLING EQUIPMENT: . Dumpsters, trash and trash handling equipment shall be stored within a principal structure or within an attached structure accessible from within the principal structure and serviced by an overhead door to the exterior ofthe facility. If the structure is attached for this purpose, it shall be of the same materials as the principal structure and accessible to the structure from the interior and shall be roofed. A facility shall be located so as to be as inconspicuous as possible to the contiguous public right of way. Such trash handling equipment storage areas shall be of sufficient size to accommodate the separation of trash, including separate provisions for paper, cardboard, glass, cans and miscellaneous refuse. The new (1999) trash handling section of the Roseville Code reads as follows: Trash Handling Equipment: Residential: Residential containers, trash and trash handling equipment within the Single Family Residential District (R-l), Two Family Residential District (R-2), and Townhouse District (R-6) shall be required to store trash and recyclable material containers within a garage and/or approved screened structure. Said trash and recyclables shall be picked-up at the curbside no more than once a week. Otber Cities: The City of Blaine does not have a screening ordinance for trash cans. Blaine does have a general junk ordinance which requires trash cans to be stored in a garage or a storage building on their property. We respond to outdoor storage of trash cans on a complaint basis only. (Curt Larsen) The City of Shoreview code states that refuse containers cannot be stored in the front yard except on the day of pick-up. Obviously, we do not enforce people leaving it at the curb on the night prior to pick-up. It doesn't seem to be a big issue here, although last year we bad a complaint that many in a neighborhood were leavin~l!t in front of their garages. (Tom Simonson) ~ The new City of Lakeville code (Section 11-18-9) states that all waste and recycling receptacles shall be stored within the principal structure or within an accessory enclosure area, totally screened from eye level view.
