Billing Time Period: 3rd Quarter of 2020 (July 1 - Sept 30)
Invoice Date(s): July 1 - Sept 30
Garbage Hauler: Aspen
Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that because of a COVID-related relocation, their property has been vacant since mid-March. He stated Aspen has not picked up any garbage since that time. The property owner believes he sent in a UDRF; he remember filling out the form, but Aspen (and the City) were unable to find any records of a vacancy. The property owner said he sent in another UDRF after he received another bill. City staff reached out to Aspen on this matter, but Aspen still didn’t have any record of a vacancy during this period. The property owner doesn’t believe that its fair or reasonable to that anyone should have to pay for a service they weren’t receiving.
Staff Comments: Staff recommends removing the Q3 2020 assessment of $77.36 as a courtesy. It seems like the resident tried to set this property up as vacant, but there was some miscommunication, and this vacancy wasn’t entered.
