Tax Assessment Worksheet

Postcard Returned by: Adam Bonnie

Cost: $109.37

Hauling Service(s) Provided: Q42020 Delinquent Garbage Bill; service period Oct-December

Type of Order/Fee: Trash Hauling

Billing Time Period: 4th Quarter of 2020 (Oct 1 - Dec 31)

Invoice Date(s): Oct 1 - Dec 31

Garbage Hauler: Waste Management

Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:

Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): The Property Owner previously submitted a complaint regarding account set up.  Waste Management responded that the account was only partially set up in their system in November 2020 so there was no invoice generated.

Staff Comments: Staff confirmed with the hauler that the customer service representative that the property owner spoke to on 11/19/2021 never finished setting up the account.  However, the account for the previous owner was still set up so therefore service was being provided to the property during Quarter 4 2020. Therefore, staff recommends removing the late fees and reducing the assessment to $99.43 since the property owner never received an invoice or Notice of Nonpayment. Staff has confirmed with the hauler that a new account has been set up in the current owner's name.
