Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that he is not using the garbage service and therefore should not have to pay for service. He returned his 64-gal cart in September 2018 to the West 7th St Federation and has not used it since. He currently takes all his trash to his business.
Staff Comments: According to staff records, the property owner did call the city in April 2019 and refused garbage service. Based on this, city staff sent a request to ADS to adjust the service level to a small EOW cart after Q2 2019. Therefore, staff recommends reducing the assessment to the cost of a 35-gal EOW cart with late fees for a total of $66.19. We will also be reducing the assessments for Q3 & Q4 2019 as well as Q1 & Q3 2020.
