Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): PO states that this property has been unoccupied since 10/30/2021 when he evicted the tenant.

He finally decided to contest because he is preparing to sell the property.
Staff Comments: PO called the City 01-19-2024 requesting a service hold for the property. This was forwarded to the hauler. The City has no record of contact with PO or previous request for a service hold at the property. WM states that they have not had contact with this property or PO until the service hold request forwarded to them in January 2024. The account previously belonged to Advanced Disposal. WM was able to find an old record of contact with Advanced Disposal on 09-23-2021. The notes from this interaction state, "Owner wants bill in tenants name due to having the [resident] pay it.

The garbage bill has gone to assessments for the following: 2023 (all quarters); 2022 (all quarters); 2021 (all quarters); 2020 (Q4- different PO).
