Thank you for posting! I have created work order #596595 to report this to the Environmental Services Supervisor for removal or enforcement.

Reference City Code Of Ordances Section 22: Container being visible is not a violation.

Solid waste collection begins at 7:00 a.m. and containers not available for collection on the scheduled day will not be collected until the next regularly scheduled day. Containers shall be removed from the curb the day that they are serviced and shall not be stored in front of a dwelling or commercial establishment, or otherwise in front of the building line closest to the street. Any variations from these requirements requires the approval of the solid waste director or designee. Failure to remove the container from the curb the day that the container is serviced is deemed in violation of this section, which shall result in the following:

a.

As a result of a first violation, written warning of such violation shall be issued to the owner, occupant, lessor, lessee, or person in charge of the premises where the container is located with no monetary penalty being imposed;

b.

Any second or subsequent violations shall subject the offender to a civil penalty in accordance with the fee and penalty schedule as approved by city council. Such civil penalty shall be recovered by the city in a civil action in the nature of a debt if the offender does not pay the penalty within the time prescribed in subsection (c) of this section.

c.

In the case of a second or subsequent violation of this section, a written citation shall be issued to the owners, occupant, lessor, lessee or person in charge of the premises where the containers are located, stating the amount of the penalty and that the penalty is to be paid to the finance director, City Hall, 433 Hay Street, Fayetteville, North Carolina, within five days. If the penalty is not paid within the time prescribed, the city may initiate a civil action in the nature of a debt and recover the sum of the penalty plus the costs of the action.

d.

Each and every day's violation of any provision of this section after the first violation shall constitute a separate and distinct offense.

I've contacted the supervisor handing this case to follow up on this matter. This property has been inspected and service notice has been issued to the property owner in reference to the curbside items. The Environmental Services Department will continue to work with the property owner until the violation has been corrected.

Thanks for fixing this issue!
