(3)

All containers shall be placed no more than four (4) feet from an area where the collection vehicle can reasonably park. All residential containers set out for collection shall have the necessary clearance from obstructions on either side of the container as well as overhead clearance needed for the collection vehicle to empty contents of the container without causing damage to public or private property. In case of dispute, an acceptable residential container location shall be as determined by the Public Works Director.
