A Giles County Circuit Court judge has upheld two of three citations issued by the city of Pulaski under its Clean Street Ordinance.
Judge Robert Holloway made his findings in an appeal filed by Tennessee Valley Recycling and TVR Superintendent David Perry concerning three citations last year against them under the Clean Street Ordinance.
The city council passed the Clean Street Ordinance in May 2008 and cited Perry for a violation on May 29. TVR was later cited twice in August 2008 for violations.
The ordinance prohibits the tracking of dirt, mud and debris onto a city street from a property by the property owner or any contractor entering and leaving the premises. It requires the property owner and any contractors entering a city street to ensure that the wheels of all vehicles and equipment are free of mud, dirt and debris.
Once a property owner is notified of a violation, they are given eight hours to bring their site and the street in compliance with the ordinance. If the street is not cleaned in eight hours, the street will be closed until compliance is reached an confirmed by the city.
After one violation has been cited, any successive violation within a 12 month period requires the property owner to enter into a remediation plan with the city to ensure the street will remain clean.
