Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:

Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that they have been having issues with Advanced Disposal since the beginning of the coordinated collection program. Primarily, they have been having issues with missed pick ups and therefore do not feel as though they should be charged the full cost of service due to this issue.

Staff Comments: Hauler confirmed that the only documented missed pick up during Quarter 3 2019 was on 09/13/2019. As a courtesy, staff recommends removing the late fee of $14.40 and reducing the assessment to the original cost of $96.08.
