6.4.3 Collection of Solid Waste<br />
6.5 Recycling Facilities<br />
No person may collect or transport waste materials for a fee without obtaining a<br />
permit from the <strong>County</strong>. Storage of solid waste materials shall be confined to<br />
buildings and structures designed specifically for such purpose and shall be secured<br />
by appropriate fences and gates. The openings to the buildings and structures,<br />
including but not limited to conveyors, doors, ramps, and other points of access for<br />
use by transport or moving vehicles when not in use shall be closed air tight to<br />
minimize the impact from odor and concentration of insects and rodents.<br />
A recycling facility by definition is a place where any material including yard waste, oil,<br />
glass, metal, plastic, paper, or cardboard is processed for an end-use. Because of the nature<br />
of the recycling facilities as permanent structures, zoning approval and a conditional use<br />
permit is required. The following are required to obtain a conditional use permit:<br />
1) The facility shall not abut residential and public uses.<br />
2) The facility will be screened from the public right-of-way when it is abutting a<br />
residential district. The screen shall consist of a solid fence or wall of at least eight<br />
(8) feet in height.<br />
3) The facility shall not be placed in the floodplain.<br />
4) The site shall be free of litter and other undesirable materials. Containers shall be<br />
clearly marked to identify the type of material that may be deposited.<br />
5) There shall be pest control plan for review and approval.<br />

gases, odors, radio interference, blighted structures or buildings, accumulation of junk,<br />
trash, rubbish, automobiles, dead or diseased trees shall be prohibited.<br />
Sustained noise of over eighty (80) decibels (dB) during the day and seventy (70) decibels<br />
(dB) at night is prohibited.<br />
