These stations shall be inspected daily by facility personnel to insure they are in good working order and shall be inspected on a bi-monthly basis by a qualified pest control company. Any damaged stations shall be replaced promptly and a monthly log of this maintenance (including activity) shall be kept on-site for inspection_ C'. r An odor neutralizing system shall be utilized, installed and maintained along the south and east ends of the sorting area. Any chemicals used to neutralize odors shall be non-toxic and shall not be noxious or offensive to perscons residing or working in the vicinity of the recycling facility. 10. Unless otherwise noted, no equipment activities connected with the business (inclusive of truck/tractor operations)shall be allowed except during regular business hours as follows: 1) Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.; and 2) Saturday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. 11. The existing perimeter wall shall be completely repaired, and/or replaced as necessary, within three (3) months from the approval of this modified Use Permit.The wall shall be constructed of the same material and shall be painted with graffiti-resistant paint to match throughout the site. In order to ensure that recyclable materials will not be visible from the public right-of-ways, no recyclable materials may be stacked higher than the solid perimeter wall. 12. A minimum eight (8) foot high solid vegetative screen shall be planted adjacent to the exterior of the solid perimeter wall to visually obscure the wall and minimize the occurrence of graffiti. The vegetative screen shall reach the minimum height within three(3)years of planting, be maintained in a healthy manner so as not to become deteriorated and not overhang the public sidewalk. The maintenance of the vegetation shall remain the sole responsibility of the property owner or successors-in-interest. 13. A litter/dust barrier shall be installed to a height not to exceed an overall height of thirty (30)feet and not less than eight (8) feet above the top of the existing perimeter wall surrounding the sorting area. In addition, a netting material shall be utilized to fully cover the top of the sorting area to prevent lightweight materials (paper, plastic bags, etc.)from leaving the site. These barriers shall be periodically(at least weekly)washed down to remove accumulated dust and other materials to prolong their effectiveness. The type and size of the litter/dust barrier netting shall be subject to the approval of the Community Development Director, shall be designed to effectively contain dust and litter on the site and shall be maintained by the property owner or successors-in-interest. 14. Unless otherwise noted, no waste gathered from restaurants or residential uses, particularly apartment complexes, may be accepted onto the site. These types of facilities generate putrefying wastes that create odors known to be offensive to the average citizen. 15.

Recyclable materials stored within completely enclosed structures may remain on-site for a period of time not to exceed six (6)weeks from the time they are delivered to the site. 16.
