Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner had a service hold from 1/5/2021 - 05/30/2021. They stated that they paid their hauler for pick up first week of January. They want to know why they have a pending assessment when they feel they should not have been charged for Quarter 1 2021.
Staff Comments: Hauler confirmed that the property owner had made a payment of $21.05 on 2/17/2021 towards the original invoice of $98.84, plus a late fee of $4.74. As the invoice had already been generated for Q1 2021, the property owner should have paid the invoice in full, with the understanding that the hauler would credit them for the time period that the hold was in place. Hauler records confirm that there was a credit of $57.01 added to the account on 4/5/2021 to cover the time period of 1/5/2021 - 3/31/2021. However, they also requested that staff remove the assessment in full. Therefore staff recommends removing the assessment.
