Operators of rental properties commonly communicate these schedules to tenants and establish clear expectations about who is responsible for moving containers to and from the curb. Staying current with any updates to the Village Residential Sanitation and Debris Rules and Policies, which are incorporated by reference into § 13-7, is also part of ongoing compliance.
