Hauling Service(s) Provided: Unpaid garbage bill; 2021 Jan-March Service Period
Type of Order/Fee: Trash Hauling
Billing Time Period: 1st Quarter of 2021 (Jan 1 - March 31)
Invoice Date(s): Jan 1 - March 31
Garbage Hauler: Advanced Disposal
Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): I issued payment ahead of time and in full. I should not be penalized because the garbage company cannot process my payment in a timely fashion
Staff Comments: Hauler confirmed that the payment for the original invoice of $59.22 had been received and applied on 2/2/2021. As the original due date of the invoice was January 25, 2021, the original invoice would have incurred a late fee of $2.96. As this late fee was not included in the payment sent by the property owner, staff recommends approving the assessment.
