Sand City Municipal Code Ch. 15.16 Dumping and Filling

No person shall fill or dump any earth, sand, gravel, rock or construction materials or other similar material on any unimproved property within the City without first having obtained a City license and paid the requisite fee; provided, however, this provision shall not apply to deliveries of material to commercial enterprises which hold said materials for sale or which use said materials as ingredients in a manufactured or processed product.

(Ord. 77-88 §1)

Application for a license to dump or fill may be obtained at the City Hall upon paying the application fee. In order to establish uniformity of fees, the City Council adopts and incorporates by reference the fee that the County imposes from time to time for similar filling and dumping uses.

(Ord. 77-88 §2)

The application for a license to fill or dump shall be posted at the City Hall and at or about the property upon which the filling or dumping is to take place for three days prior to the commencement of work. Upon written objections filed by at least two City residents within the three day posting period, the license application shall be set for a public hearing at the next regularly scheduled Council meeting; provided, that such a hearing can be scheduled at a time which would give the applicant and interested citizens at least three days notice. The City Council shall be empowered to hold the public hearing and render a decision on the application with such conditions as it shall determine to be reasonable.
