Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that they were not living at the property during this time period. City records show that there was a UDRF submitted on 2/13/2023.
Staff Comments: Hauler records confirm that the Unoccupied Dwelling Registration Form (UDRF) that was submitted on 2/13/2023 was applied to the account on 2/17/2023. Therefore the current assessed amount is for service for a 64-gal cart from 1/1/2023 - 2/17/2023. The property owner was charged $55.61 for garbage service, plus an additional $10.77 in late fees ($66.38). The first late fee of $5.21 was added based on the original invoiced amount of $104.26 and the other two late fees of $2.78 were added after the UDRF was applied to the account. Hauler records do show that the property owner contact Waste Management regarding a vacancy request on 1/11/2023. However, the property owner never filled out and submitted the UDRF that was sent to them on 1/11/2023. Therefore staff recommends approving the assessment.
