8	208.00	312.00	417.00	519.00

 

a.

When a customer furnishes his own container, these containers will be maintained to city standards. There will be no credit allowed against the monthly collection charge for customer-furnished containers.

b.

When two (2) or more customers shall use one (1) or more containers jointly, charges shall be divided proportionately as to use among the using customers, with a minimum fee of sixteen dollars and eighty cents ($16.80) per month for each customer.

When joint use of a city container involves customers who each have their own independent water meter, the minimum charge shall be sixteen dollars and eighty cents ($16.80) per water meter or the container monthly rate whichever is greater. In such cases, the building owner shall contract with the city to provide container service for each business within the building. The individual business shall be relieved of the minimum garbage service billing provided the owner of the complex has contracted with the city for container service.

c.

When a customer requests service that is not a scheduled service the charge shall be as follows, plus the applicable sales tax, for each nonscheduled service:

Four-yard container ..... $20.00

Six-yard container ..... $22.00

Eight-yard container ..... $25.00

d.

Should a customer order unscheduled service more than three (3) times in any calendar year, the customer may be required to order a larger container or request additional standard weekly pickups.

(3)

Minimum sanitation charge.

a.

Where there is only one (1) public, commercial, industrial or business entity (excluding apartment) in operation at one (1) location, the entity shall only be charged one (1) minimum rate unless the entity requests or is provided sanitation services in excess of the minimum service.

b.

Where there is more than one (1) public, commercial, industrial or business entity in operation at one (1) location, and the entity contracts with an independent contractor for monthly service, the city's charge to the customer shall be a sixteen dollar and eighty cents ($16.80) monthly charge per water meter connection. If the owner of a complex contracts with an independent contractor for container service, the owner may by contract with the city have the city's minimum monthly charge for each water meter connection billed to said owner, instead of each tenant.
