Tax Assessment Worksheet

Postcard Returned by: Shirley Alexander

Cost: $221.23

Hauling Service(s) Provided: Garbage Service; Jul 1 - Sep 30 2019

Type of Order/Fee: Trash Hauling

Billing Time Period: 3^rd Quarter of 2019 (July 1 - September 30)

Invoice Date(s): July 1 - September 30

Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:

Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Continuation of incorrect billing and services. I would like an accurate assesment of what I already owe. Currently I have two every other week carts but I am being billed incorrectly for two medium size carts. Both small every other week carts were delivered in the month of July. Between January 2019 and July 2019 I only had one medium cart.

Staff Comments: Republic confirmed that small carts were  deliverd on 09/26/2019 to replace the two medium carts. As the property owner was using the medium size containers for the full service period, staff recommends approving the assessment.
