10.25.010 Hauling waste fill or waste excavation material.
A. Any hauling or cause to be hauled waste fill or waste excavation material on the streets and highways within the city shall obtain any necessary right-of-way and/or construction haul permit. Any haul exceeding 1,000 cubic yards shall require a construction haul permit. The issuance of right-of-way permits and construction hauling permits will be processed by the city engineer, who will place such conditions as may be reasonably necessary to prevent creation of a nuisance or hazard to the public. Any violation of the right-of-way permits and hauling permit’s terms or conditions of the permit shall be sufficient grounds for the city engineer to revoke the permit. Such conditions may include, but are not limited to:
1. Designation of specific routes to be used;
2. Designation of specific haul hours or days;
3. Designation of specific locations of access to and from public right-of-way;
4. Provision for safety precautions such as the use of barricades, warning or traffic signs, flagmen or police officers for traffic control;
5. Assumption of responsibility to remove any spillage of waste fill or waste excavation material from streets or sidewalks or to pay the city twice the cost of removal.
B. It shall be unlawful to cause damage or allow fill, excavated material, construction debris, mud, dirt, rock, sand, gravel, concrete or asphalt to be spilled, dumped, or tracked onto public streets, alleys, or sidewalks.
C. Any person who owns, leases or occupies property in connection with which fill, excavated material, construction debris, mud, dirt, rock, sand, gravel, concrete or asphalt is hauled or caused or allowed to be spilled, dumped or tracked, or damages public streets, alleys or sidewalks shall be subject to any penalty authorized by this chapter, by the general penalty provision of the city code, MCC 1.10.010.
