Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that they received a notice from the city for Q2 billing in the amount of $4.13, which Advanced Disposal informed her was an extra bag charge. The property owner states that she has not ever had extra bags and would like the City of Saint Paul to consider removing this amount due to her being a long standing customer of Advanced Disposal even prior to the garbage program.
Staff Comments: Staff confirmed that Advanced Disposal had credited the account in the amount of $4.13. However, due to the lack of response from Advanced Disposal on this issue and the low value of the assessment, the city recommends removing the assessment
