The customer service representative stated that based on this fact, the property owner should not have received an assessment for that quarter.
Staff Comments: Hauler confirmed that since Quarter 4 2018 they have only received two payments from the property owner. The first was on March 25, 2019 for Quarter 1 2019. The second was on April 13, 2020 for Quarter 2 2020.
