ANNOTATIONSConditions for assessment. — Assessments are permitted in two situations: (1) upon the failure to pay the amount provided by ordinance for the removal of the garbage, and (2) when garbage is not placed in proper receptacles within 48 hours after it is thrown, left or deposited on the premises and the municipality performs a special clean-up or pick-up service.

Conditions for assessment against property. — This section provides two circumstances under which an assessment can be made against property: (1) where a person owning or controlling the property shall fail or refuse to pay the amount required to be paid for the removal of garbage, and (2) where garbage is left or deposited on premises, and such person refuses to remove the same within 48 hours after it has been left on the premises. If either of these events occur, an assessment can be made against the property which eventually will mature into a lien against such property. 1956 Op. Att'y Gen.
