Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner wants to contest their Q1 2020 assessment. They stated that they ordered a 64-gal cart sometime in the fall of 2019 and received a 94-gal cart. When the property owner complained, the hauler delivered the 64-gal cart and stated that the property owner would receive credits for the difference in cost. However, the property owner stated that they were never issued credit for the difference. This means that there was a late fee issued since the property owner did not pay the full bill. Due to the fact that he was not credited properly, the property owner feels that they should not have to pay the assessed late fee.
Staff Comments: Hauler confirmed that the 94-gal cart was delivered at the beginning of the coordinated collection program in September 2018. The 64-gal cart that was initially requested was delivered on 10/24/2018 and the 94-gal cart was removed the same day. The property owner received a credit of $55.18 on his Quarter 1 2019 invoice. In regards to the Quarter 1 2020 assessment of $4.65, the hauler confirmed that they had credited that amount to the property owner's account as a courtesy. Therefore, staff recommends approving the assessment.
