Adequate, accessible and convenient areas for depositing, collecting and loading recyclable materials in receptacles shall be provided.

The area shall be designed to prevent storm water run-on to the area and runoff from the area, and roofs shall be designed to drain away from neighboring properties. A sign clearly identifying all recycling and solid waste collection and loading areas and the materials accepted therein shall be posted adjacent to all points of direct access to the area.

2.

This requirement shall apply to all new commercial, industrial, or institutional buildings, and city facilities (including buildings, structures, and outdoor recreation areas owned by the city) where solid waste is collected and loaded. This requirement shall also apply to any existing development for which building permit applications are submitted within a twelve-month period collectively adding thirty percent (30%) or more to the existing floor area of the development project. For existing developments occupied by multiple tenants, this requirement shall apply to applications for one or more building permits for a single or multiple alterations submitted by any tenant within a twelve-month period collectively adding thirty percent (30%) or more to the existing floor area of that portion of the development which said tenant leases. Such recycling areas shall, at a minimum, be sufficient in capacity, number, and distribution to serve that portion of the development project which said tenant leases.
