Complete information regarding permits and Mesa Standard Details & Specifications pertaining to residential solid waste guidelines is available through Development Services.

Guideline highlights:

• SMALL LOT/MULTI-LOT WITH PRIVATE DRIVE BARREL COLLECTION

  • BARREL MUST BE PHYSICALLY LOCATED IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE DISTANCE TO THE PARCEL IS A MAXIMUM OF 100 FEET. THE LOCATION SHOULD BE LOGICALLY PLACED SO THAT RESIDENT(S) WOULD INSTINCTIVELY KNOW THEIR PLACEMENT LOCATION.
    
    
  • TREES SHALL NOT BE PLANTED WITHIN TEN (10) FEET OF THE BARREL LOCATION AREA AND SHOULD BE SPACED SO AS NOT TO CREATE AN AERIAL OBSTRUCTION FOR THE BARREL DUMPING AT THE FINAL FULL GROWTH DIMENSIONS.
    
    

• SUBDIVISION REQUIREMENTS FOR AUTOMATED BARREL COLLECTION

  • MINIMUM 14' OVERHEAD CLEARANCE IS NEEDED FOR COLLECTION VEHICLE TO SAFELY NEGOTIATE.
    
    
  • ALL STREETS MUST BE DESIGNED SO THAT COLLECTION VEHICLES ARE NOT FORCED TO BACK UP AT ANY TIME (HAMMERHEAD DRIVES AND DEAD-ENDS ARE UNACCEPTABLE).
