Review request to waive refuse and recycling charges on a summer cottage — Mr.
Edward Glynn was present to request the fee for refuse and recycling be waived on his
two summer cottages on Basses Bay. Mr. Glynn explained that the two small cottages are
only used from Memorial Day to October I" He also explained that the two cottages are
on one tax key. He stated he would be willing to pay one fee for both but does not
understand why he has to pay two fees for one tax key when the garbage is only from one
family. Ald Patterson stated that in past years several residents including churches asked
the committee to waive the fee and their request was denied. Ald. Patterson noted that
when the City negotiates a price with BFI they take all units into consideration. If
someone opts not to use this service the city is still paying for it. Aid. Petfalski moved
to deny waving the fee, seconded by Aid. Wichgers. Motion carried unanimously.
Communication and any other business as authorized by law - None.
Being no further business to discuss, Aid Petfalski moved to adjourn the meeting,
seconded by Aid. Wichgers. Carried by all and meeting adjourned at 7:30PM.
