Sedona City Code §8.05.070 requires waste containers to be stored on private property in a clean, sanitary condition with lids closed between collections — not stored in the right-of-way or in front-yard view.
The combination of §8.05.070 (clean/sanitary, lidded) and §6.15 (no attracting wildlife) effectively requires bins to be screened or stored in garages/side yards. Containers that attract javelina, bears, coyotes, or other listed wildlife violate §6.15.020 regardless of whether the lid is closed. Aesthetic limits also flow from §8.10.020 (public nuisance) when bins or trash spill into view.
Civil infraction. Persistent issues can stack §8.05.070 + §6.15 + §8.10.020 violations.
