Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): I purchased this house on February 1st, 2021, therefore I did not own the house during the period of the delinquent garbage bill. I recently had a fire at my house of 1957 Berkeley Ave and was not able to get access to the house until a few days ago.

I paid the delinquent garbage bill on April 7th, 2021.
