Thank you JimmyT and Flame Tree for your response.

Landlords are responsible for the behaviour of their tenants (up to a point). Pass a by-law saying that residents must not leave oversized rubbish in that area or they will be charged the cost of its removal.
Put up a sign warning residents that leaving oversized garbage is a breach of that by-law.
And put a note on the by-laws given to all tenants warning them that leaving rubbish in that area could affect their bond as the landlord will be charged for its removal.
So you are saying that potentially with the by-law you’ve mentioned landlords may be charged for the rubbish that is left by tenant who moved out? Just wondering whether the situation is different from the one if an owner sold their house, left rubbish on common property and moved out.
One more question – do I understand correctly that having a motion about oversized rubbish on AGM similar to the by-law you’ve mentioned is not sufficient?
