§ 24.50.180. Building construction, demolition or repair—Disposition of earth and rubbish.  


Latest version.
  • Earth taken from excavations and rubbish from buildings shall not be stored on the sidewalk or other street area, but shall be removed from day to day as rapidly as produced. Where such materials are dry and apt to produce dust when handled, they shall be kept sufficiently moist to prevent the wind from blowing them about. Building rubbish accumulating on upper floors and all rubbish, plaster and other loose materials produced while wrecking, altering or repairing a building must be lowered by elevators in closed receptacles or by closed chutes connecting to vehicles removing such materials, and, when likely to produce dust, the chute must be provided with means of wetting this waste to prevent the wind from blowing it about.
