Summary

This bill would require the NYC Department of Sanitation (DSNY) to establish a process for a block association or non-profit association to request a stationary on-street container (SOSC), for the setting out of residential refuse, to be installed for shared use by 2 or more residential buildings. Such process would include that DSNY contact building owners to affirm if they will opt in to the use of a shared SOSC. DSNY would then be required to decide whether such shared SOSC is viable, and that where DSNY determines such installation is viable, to install a SOSC for shared use and notify all building owners of their responsibilities regarding the shared SOSC.
