Nonresidential Refuse definition
Nonresidential Refuse means all refuse that is not Residential Refuse, as defined herein;
Nonresidential Refuse means all privately generated refuse that is not “residential refuse.”10 SDMC § 66.0127(a)(3). As described above, “residential refuse” is the refuse normally generated from a single or multi-family residence that is used and occupied for “nontransient occupancy” (occupancy through ownership, lease or rental for periods of one month or more). SDMC § 66.0127(a)(2). Therefore, the People’s Ordinance prohibits the City from collecting refuse from single and multi-family residences that are used or occupied for less than one month, because they generate “nonresidential refuse.” See SDMC §§ 66.0127(a)(3)-(5). The public views short-term residential summer rentals in the Mission Beach area as causing an increase in the summer fly population that requires additional refuse collection.11 The People’s Ordinance prohibits the City from collecting refuse from those Mission Beach residences that are occupied through ownership, lease or rental for less than one month.12
