§ 6-201. Property Maintenance Standards.

(a)

Debris Control. All properties with on-going construction activities shall maintain the premises in a neat and orderly manner. A trash enclosure, dumpster or other container shall be maintained on-site at all times. Loose debris shall be placed within the enclosure. A cover shall be maintained over such debris containers during periods when no construction activity is taking place.

(b)

Erosion and Dust Control. In compliance with the Village's National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NDPES) permit requirements, prior to beginning any clearing, grubbing or construction activities, as part of the building permit process, the contractor shall submit a plan detailing the location and handling of materials, soils and outlining the actions that will be taken to prohibit run-off of dirt, sand, fluids, vegetation or any other item into the Town's stormwater system or onto adjacent property. Piles of soil shall provide for a containment area to reduce run-off.

(c)

Temporary Bathroom Facilities. Temporary Bathroom Facilities shall be placed at a location that minimizes visibility from off-site. Any such facility shall be enclosed within a decoratively fenced area (such as shadowbox, wood fencing, lattice wood panels, etc.) to effectively screen the sides and rear of the Temporary Bathroom Facility. Plywood is not acceptable nor is chain link fencing. No Temporary Bathroom Facility may be kept on a construction site unless construction activities are occurring.

(d)

Vegetation Maintenance. Vegetation such as grass, shrubs, trees and ground covers shall be maintained in such a fashion so that the site does not appear overgrown or unkempt.
