Violations /'No Operations' Declaration
A business which has not been permitted by the City to operate within the City limits of Denton;
or has been suspended by the City from operating within the City limits of Denton, Texas shall
be charged a sum of up to $500.00 per day by the City, for each day of violation of this
ordinance, if the provider violates the `No Operations' requirement prior to receipt of a City of
Denton permit, or during any suspension of a permit period. Each day of illegal operations
during a `No Operations' period is considered a separate violation and the service provider is
subject to being charged a sum of up to $500.00 for each day of violation. Following the receipt
of a `No Operations' declaration and prior to a service provider being reinstated to legally
operate within the City limits of Denton, the service provider must meet with the City staff to
update their application and agreement and make payment of all monies owed to the City.
If a service provider operates a vehicle within Denton's City limits which has not been permitted,
uses a container which has not been permitted, operates any piece of equipment with an expired
permit, performs some other permit violation, does not make payment of the appropriate fees in
a timely manner, the city will issue a `No Operations' declaration to the service provider, and
assess all applicable permit violation fees. Once a service provider has been issued a 'No
Operations' declaration from the City, all services to be provided within Denton's City limits are
required to cease. Non - permitted containers may be collected by the City and stored until
collection, storage, and permitting fees associated with each container are paid to the City of
Denton. Following a meeting with the City staff, and the payment of all monies owed the City,
the status of the permit will be determined.
Revocation of Services & Non - Renewal of Permits
If the City finds any requirement of the permit has been violated, or observes service providers
operating within Denton's City limits without current permits, the City may institute a `No
Operations' declaration. Additionally, the City may revoke or not renew the service providers
permit, thereby requiring the service provider to cease all operations within the City limits of
Denton.
Reclassification of Recyclables
Recyclables containing ten (10 %) percent or more contamination, as determined by the City, will
be considered refuse, and its collection may not be provided by service providers permitted
under this ordinance. This material shall be reclassified as refuse and will be collected by the
City of Denton. The General Manager, Solid Waste Services or his designee, will make the final
determination on whether stored recyclables contain excessive contamination, which at the
City's determination, may cause the reclassification of these materials to municipal solid waste
(MSW), thereby negating the ability of a service provider to transport this material within
Denton's City limits under their operating permit pursuant to this ordinance.
The City of Denton has the authority to inspect the contents of any container located within
Denton's City limits in order to determine the materials content of the container, so as to ensure
compliance with the contamination requirements, which shall not exceed 10 %.
