A. Except for those property owners who have opted out of curbside recycling during the opt-out period allotted, or those residents who have not signed up for green waste collection services, the owner or occupant of each single-family dwelling or duplex unit shall pay a fee for the collection, transport and removal of solid waste, green waste, and general recycling from their premises in an amount to be fixed by resolution of the city council. Such fee shall be billed on a regular basis by the city and shall be itemized and included in a comprehensive statement for all services provided by the city. These collection fees shall be collected together with and not separately from the charges for any other utility services rendered by the city and all charges shall be billed upon the same bill and collected as one item.

B. If a residence is vacant, the property owner may contact the city to request that solid waste, green waste, and general recycling containers be picked up and have these services disconnected during the vacancy period. [Ord. 08-21-2012C § 1. Code 2000 § 14-4-4. Formerly 8.05.040].
