ARTICLE II. SOLID WASTE ORDINANCE
Newest change 2023
Plain English: what this chapter covers
This chapter covers garbage: how trash must be bagged and stored, the pickup schedule, what the city will and won't haul, private haulers, and the garbage fee on your utility bill. An editor's note says the city contracts with the Solid Waste Management Authority of Crisp County (agreement dated 1996).
