Tax Assessment Worksheet
Postcard Returned by: Vang Xiong
Cost: $344.92
Hauling Service(s) Provided: Unpaid Garbage Bill; April 1 - June 30
Type of Order/Fee: Trash Hauling
Billing Time Period: Quarter 2 (April - June) 2022
Invoice Date(s): April 1 - June 30
Garbage Hauler: Waste Management
Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:
Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that Waste Management failed to mail the invoice to the correct address. The invoice for garbage services was sent to 841 Rose Avenue in St Paul which was their mailing address almost three years ago. When the mailing addressed changed to 15185 15th St N, Stillwater MN 55082, the property owner called Waste Management, who was the assigned hauler at the time, to update it on the account. The mailing address for the property has also been updated with Ramsey County. Therefore, the invoice should have never been sent to 841 Rose Ave. On 7/25/2022 the property owner called Waste Management and spoke with a Nicole, a customer service representative, who stated that it was Waste Management's fault that the invoices were sent to the wrong address. Therefore the property owner stated that they should not have to pay any assessed late fees.
Staff Comments: Staff confirmed that they did send an update to the hauler in March 2020 informing them of the change in mailing address. However, the mailing address was never updated. Therefore staff recommends eliminating the total late fees of $44.97 and reducing the assessment to $299.95.
