Garbage Hauler: Republic
Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that they received a notice of pending assessment from the city for Quarter 1 garbage service in the amount of $9.30. They stated that she never received a bill and therefore should not have to pay a late fee. They called Republic Services to request that it be removed.
Staff Comments: Records of notices of non payment sent to the property owner indicate that the hauler has the correct name and mailing address from the account. Hauler stated that property owner did not contact them about not receiving the initial invoice. However, they requested that we remove the assessed late fee of $9.30 as a courtesy. Therefore, staff recommends removing the assessment.
