A. No person owning any multiple-family dwelling or possessing any single-family dwelling, or industrial, commercial or business premises or structure shall allow or permit any garbage, rubbish or waste to collect and accumulate upon or in any such premises or structure except as otherwise provided by law. This provision shall not be construed as affecting any authorized waste disposal operation or properly conducted garden composting process carried on by a private individual in their own premises and for their own use and done in a manner consistent with this section.

B. During intervals between collection or disposal, the storage, accumulation, collection, keeping, handling or maintaining of waste on premises where produced shall be performed in such a manner as to prevent the harboring and breeding of rodents, insects and other vermin and as to prevent ready access to the waste by dogs and other small animals; as to prevent objectionable odors in the ambient air; as not to constitute a fire hazard; and as not to result in such unsightliness as to result in the depreciation of the value of adjacent property or the comfortable enjoyment of life thereon.

C. Every person, contractor or builder engaged in the construction, repair or demolition of any building or structure shall at reasonable intervals dispose of or remove from such premises all rubbish resulting from the construction, repair or demolition and within a reasonable time of the final cessation of work on such building, structure or premises.
