Hauling Service(s) Provided: Garbage Service Large Cart, 3 Late Fees; Jul 1 - Sep 30 2019
Type of Order/Fee: Trash Hauling
Billing Time Period: 3rd Quarter of 2019 (July 1 - September 30)
Invoice Date(s): July 1 - September 30
Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): My husband and I bought the property on July 11th and never received a garbage bill for this quarter. We have no problem paying the initial bill, but we don't want to pay any late fees or extra charges since we never received a bill to pay. Had we received a bill, we would have paid it. Also, I want to make sure we are only paying for a small garbage cart and not a large garbage cart. Thank you!
Staff Comments: Resident did not receive required notices of nonpayment from Republic Services as they were sent to the incorrect mailing address. Mailing address was for previous owner (1886 Chardel Ct). City of Saint Paul has record of correct mailing address of 1000 Hubbard Ave. Property owner also stated that they contacted Republic on 07/08/2019 to request service for a small 35-gallon cart with every other week service. It appears as though their name on the original notice of nonpayment would reflect this. Therefore staff recommends that the assessment be reduced to a quarterly price of $60.83 for a small every other week cart.
