(2) Facility Location. Outside of any street right-of-way. In rural or village areas where a public waste collection point has been established by the county, a proposed recycling collection station is to use the same site.
(c) Minimum Site Area. None required.
(d) Setbacks. None required, provided that no collection station is to be located within one-hundred feet of an intersection.
(e) Parking Requirement.

(2) Urban Areas. No parking is required, unless on-street parking is unavailable at the site, in which case at least two off-street spaces are to be provided.
(f) Design Standards. A recycling collection station is to be designed as follows:
(1) Containers. Portable containers are to be used, placed within a stationary wood framework, solid fence or bin to prevent the containers from being overturned.
(2) Container Enclosure. To be equipped with a lid to prevent access to stored materials by animals or vermin, and to preclude stored paper from being scattered by wind.
(3) Maximum Area. A recycling collection station is to be no larger than one-hundred square feet.
(4) Signing. All collection stations are to be provided instructional signing indicating how materials are to be separated, and stating any limitations on the types of materials accepted for recycling.
(g) Maintenance. All recycling collection stations are to be maintained in a clean and sanitary condition, with no material stored or discarded outside the container enclosure. All collection stations are to be emptied at intervals sufficient to preclude containers from being filled, but in no case are containers to be emptied less than once every seven days.
