ORDINANCE NO. 407
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO AMENDING
ORDINANCE NO. 150 OF SAID CITY, WHICH WAS PASSED AND
ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF SAID CITY ON THE 1ST DAY
OF APRIL 1929 AND WHICH IS ENTITLED: 'tAN ORDINANCE OF
THE CITY OF SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO ESTABLISHING REGULATIONS
FOR THE ACCUMULATION, COLLECTION, AND REMOVAL OF GARBAGE".
The City Council of the City of South San Francisco does
ordain as follows:
Section 1. Section 19 of the ordinance designated in the
title hereto is hereby amemded so that the provision establishing
fees for the collection of garbage from private dwellings shall
read as follows:
"For private dwelling houses (dry garbage
only):
(1) Where the containers have a capacity
not exceeding thirty (30) gallons and the weight
of the contents of which, when filled, does not
exceed fifty (50) pounds, the charge for col-
lections made once each week shall be $1.20 per month
(2) Where the containers have a capacity
not exceeding thirty (30) gallons and the weight
of the contents of which, when filled, does not
exceed fifty (50) pounds, the charge for col-
lecti0ns made only once each month shall be - - $0.65 per month
(3) Where a larger container Shall be
used, there shall be allowed for each ten (10)
gallons, or fraction thereof, that the capacity
of the container shall be in excess o£ thirty
(30) gallons, a surcharge as follows: (a) In
the case of weekly collections, an additional
twenty cents (20~) per month; (b) in the case of
monthly collections, an additional ten cents
(10~) per month."
Section 2. This ordinance is hereby declared to be an
urgency measure, and as such shall take effect immediately upon
adoption, a statement of the urgency being as follows: The
present schedule of rates for garbage collection in residential
areas, which schedule was established in the year 1947, is wholly
inadequate because of the greatly diminished purchasing power of
the dollar and because of the further fact that the scavenger
company now obligated to make collections of garbage within the
City of South San Francisco is required to commence immediately
a fill-and-cover garbage disposal operation, which is considerably
more expensive than the method that is now, and for a number of
years heretofore has been, employed for such purpose. Unless
this ordinance shall become effective immediately upon its
adoption, so as to place into effect at once the garbage collection
rates hereby established, the commencement of the fill-and-cover
garbage disposal operations may be delayed and thus place in
jeopardy the health and welfare of the community.
Section 3. This ordinance shall be published once as
required by law and, being an urgency measure, shall become
effective immediately upon its adoption.
Introduced this 15th day of October 1956.
