§ 13.48.130. Gate fees.

Fees established by this section shall apply to all nonresidential customers of the city, including, but not limited to, commercial, industrial agricultural and institutional refuse, or representatives of the state, county and city shall be charged as set forth in subsection A of this section.

A.

Bin Disposal Fees. A bin disposal fee shall be charged for all nonresidential refuse bins that are collected by the city for disposal at a county waste facility. The bin disposal fee shall be based on the basic fee per ton gate fee charged by the county for nonresidential refuse and shall be calculated using the following formula:

The basic per ton gate fee for nonresidential refuse divided by two thousand pounds, equals the fee per pound. The fee per pound, multiplied by the average weight in pounds of a cubic yard of municipal solid waste found in bins, equals the bin disposal fee per cubic yard. The bin disposal fee per cubic yard multiplied by the capacity of a bin equals the total bin disposal fee per time the bin is collected by the city.

Two or more containers: Number of containers x number of month pickups x gate fee = monthly gate fee.

B.

The city shall calculate the amount owed by each nonresidential customer for the bin disposal fee for the city's current billing period and shall include that bin disposal fee, in a separate line or column, on the invoice or statement sent to each nonresidential customer for that billing period. Charges shall be due and payable on the first day of the month after service rendered and shall be delinquent after the fifteenth day of the month thereafter. A ten percent penalty shall be added to each delinquency.
