Solid Waste Property of City. Ownership of solid waste placed in solid waste collection containers provided by the City or deposited on the City disposal site shall be vested in the City. However, notwithstanding anything else contained in the City Code, the ownership of, title to, and responsibility and liability for any hazardous waste or hazardous substance shall remain with the generator of such waste or substance at all times, even if such waste or substance is placed in a City collection container or disposal site.
