Cost: $ 117.80
Hauling Service(s) Provided: Garbage Service for Large Cart, 3 Late Fees; Oct 1 - Dec 31 2018
Garbage Hauler: Republic Services
Type of Order/Fee: Garbage Hauling
Billing Time Period: 4th Quarter 2018 (Oct 1 - Dec 31)
Invoice Date(s): Oct - MISSING / Nov - MISSING / Dec - MISSING
Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Republic Services billed me under my old account that I had before citywide garbage service began. I paid the bill to the old account and did not pay under the new account.
Staff Comments: The City will work with Republic Services to make sure any amount paid on a previous account will be applied as a credit moving forward. Because the amount paid to the previous account was not found during Quarter 4 2018, payment was not received for Quarter 4 2018. The property owner is responsible for paying the Quarter 4 2018 bill. Staff recommends removing late fees.
