ORDINANCE: 31-10 TITLE: AN ORDINANCE OF THE TOWNSHIP OF JACKSON, COUNTY OF OCEAN, STATE OF NEW JERSEY, AMENDING AND SUPPLEMENTING CHAPTER 216 ENTITLED "GARBAGE, RUBBISH AND WASTE MATERIALS" SO AS TO INCREASE PERMITTED MAXIMUM GALLON CAPACITY OF RECEPTACLES

Attorney Cipriani advised the original change was made to increase the capacity of the acceptable receptacles. There appears to be ancient language which requires that the receptacles be tapered metal containers. It seems like this would be a good time to not only increase the capacity but to remove the metal requirement.
