B. Multi-unit residential accounts must have the same type of service for each “occupied unit” unless tenant and owner sign city tenant release form for single-family residence garbage service. Tenant then pays direct to the city’s agent for solid waste services and is provided variable solid waste service as defined in “single-family residence.” Owners are responsible for payment if tenant does not pay. If no payment is received from tenant or owner within 60 days of billing, service will revert back to multi-unit residential accounts. Residences can request a tenant release form only once in a year while they are at that address.
C. Property owners of property not specifically addressed elsewhere in this chapter are responsible for tenant payments. A tenant and owner may sign a city tenant release form for garbage service. Tenant then pays direct to city’s agent for solid waste services. Owners are responsible for payment if the tenant does not pay. If no payment is received from tenant or owner within 60 days of billing, service will revert back to a 20-gallon cart and tenant’s name will be removed from the account and the owner will be held responsible.
D. Garbage collections in excess of those included in the current monthly service (as listed on the account) shall be at the rate of $10.83 per each extra container of up to 32 gallons per pickup.
E. Temporary and roll off services do not include tipping fees charged by the King County solid waste division which shall be added to the total service charges. The tipping fee shall be the actual container load weight multiplied by the tipping fee and then multiplied by a factor of 1.02. Minimum charges for temporary and roll off services include applicable delivery and pickup fees and rental rates per pickup.
F. Rental rates for dumpsters and drop-boxes are required with the provision that persons, firms or corporations may furnish their own detachable bulk containers on approval of the solid waste administrator. These containers shall be constructed so that they can be readily picked up by the service provider and the service provider’s equipment.
G. A pre-pay amount for all temporary containers is required prior to delivery. Current accounts with no delinquency charges shall be charged a pre-pay amount as follows:
Pre-Pay |
|
---|---|
Two-cubic-yard container |
$300.00 |
Four-cubic-yard container |
$350.00 |
Six-cubic-yard container |

$800.00 |

As other temporary containers become available, a pre-pay amount shall be required for the use of such container and the pre-pay amount shall be based on size. The amount of the pre-pay sum shall be determined by the director of finance. (Ord. 6920 § 1 (Exh.
