Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that the previous property owner passed away in 2016. The property is still in probate. During this time, there were people living at the property off and on. The current property owner (who is the brother of the previous property owner) stated that there has been a 96-gal cart at the property since the beginning of the program. However, they have been billed for 3 x 35-gal carts with weekly pick up. They feel that this is incorrect and does not reflect the level of service they have been receiving.
Staff Comments: Hauler records show that during Q1 2022 the property owner was being charged for two 35-gal EOW carts and one 35-gal cart with weekly pick up. However, because the property owner should have only been charged for a 96-gal cart at the property, staff recommends reducing the assessment to $106.81.
