An Ordinance to update and amend the City of Amesbury Solid Waste Ordinance Chapter 392 to add a new section entitled Article IIT Delivery and Emptying of Dumpsters.

This ordinance updates the City of Amesbury’s Solid Waste Code (Chapter 392) by creating a new Article IIT Delivery and Emptying of Dumpsters. It defines dumpsters and applies the rules to dumpsters on all private and public properties, then sets hours of operation and enforcement. The key change is prohibiting dumpster delivery and emptying between 10:00 PM and 7:00 AM citywide, with a clarified enforcement process and escalating fines for violations. It also specifies that violations are issued to the property owner and that the fines accrue per day, with a yearly reset of the fine schedule and the city retaining the right to pursue charges for continued violations.
