Postcard Returned by: Jenna Petersen
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): Property owner purchased this property at the end of May 2020 and states that she called Waste Management around the first week of June 2020 to notify them of the purchase. She also called Waste Management after receiving the Quarter 4 2020 invoice and final notice and was told by the customer service representative that the bills were going to the previous property owner.
Staff Comments: Hauler records show that the property owner did call Waste Management on 05/18/2020. However there is no record of the property owner requesting that the name and mailing address on the account be updated. There is a record of the property owner calling on 03/30/2021 to inquire about the invoices for her property and why she had not been receiving them. Staff records however, show that the city did send the hauler a request to update the name and mailing address on the account in the August 2020 hauler update. Therefore, staff is requesting that the total late fees of $9.94 be removed and that the assessment be reduced to $99.43.
