Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property was re-classified from duplex to single family home back on 12/15/18 by assessor. I paid the hauler the remaining $102.34 for Q4 2018 and now the City wants me to pay this amount again. Also, The hauler is still charging me for additional services that they knew were not used or “needed” for Q1 2019, as I have been in communication with them, making many calls to them about the reclassification.
Staff Comments: According to City records, the property reclassification from a duplex to a single-family dwelling was not updated in City records until February 8th, 2019. The City records were updated based on information downloaded from Ramsey County on a routine monthly basis. The property owner did not call to inform the City that the property had been reclassified. The property was billed according to the garbage carts that were in use at the property during Quarter 4 2018 (1 35-gallon Small Every Other Week cart and 1 64-gallon Medium cart). The property owner is responsible for paying the outstanding balance that is owed to the City.
