There appears to have been a change to the Randy’s/Republic bills and a charge is a bit misrepresented. There is a $6 charge listed as a yard waste cart. This $6 charge is actually part of our general charges and has been included as “non-taxable portion” in years past; the total of the $6 charge and the other container charges add up to the correct contract rate. Feel free to call Sharon at City Hall if you have any questions!
