James Burgess for Ashburn City Council

Sec. 70-33Functions of the mayor and city council

Unchanged since the 2007 code
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).

Collection, transportation, and disposal of solid waste shall be under the supervision and control of the mayor and city council. The mayor and city council shall have authority to establish routes and days of collection, types and locations of solid waste storage containers, and such other matters pertaining to collection, transportation, and disposal of solid waste as they may find necessary and to change and modify the same after notice as required by law, provided such measures are not contrary to the provisions of these regulations.

This is a plain-English guide, not legal advice. The official code is on Municode and at City Hall. Our copy is from April 30, 2026.
