Staff Comments: This property is classified as a three-family dwelling according to Ramsey County property tax records. The property was delivered 3 64-gallon Medium carts on August 15th, 2018, prior to the start of citywide garbage service. The property is responsible for paying the outstanding balance that is owed to the City. Under citywide garbage service, all residential properties with up to four units, including rental homes and townhomes, are required to have a garbage cart and receive garbage service for each dwelling unit. The property owner must provide garbage service for all occupied dwellings. There is no option to opt out of the citywide garbage service. The property owner may contact your garbage hauler to adjust the size of the garbage carts to accommodate the service levels for the three Residential Dwelling Units at the property.
