Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): PO reports there is only a 64 gallon cart at the property
Staff Comments: This account was billed for one 64-gallon cart and one 35-gallon cart in Quarter 3 and Quarter 4 2025. PO originally denied the presence of 64-gallon cart at the property but then agreed there is a 64-gallon cart and denied the presence of a 35-gallon cart. PW staff inquired about carts with City Route Supervisor, and he stated there was one 35-gallon cart picked up on Page St W and one 64 gallon that used to be collected at the same location until recently and provided photos of both carts. The PO denied ownership of the 35-gallon cart and provided Ring Camera images showing 64-gallon cart being collected in front of home. However, PO requested a bulky item pickup in Sept 2025 and Feb 2026 stating she places her cart on the Page St W for collection. Image of Fridge picked up in November shows 35-gallon cart in photo on Page St W, which matches City Route Supervisor's observation. Staff does not recommend reduction.
