Summary

Council voted 3-0 to waive trash service charges for several residences near construction for three months; council discussed starting with two months but settled on three and tasked staff to identify eligible homes.

Councilmember Tony Fankhauser proposed waiving trash bills for residents affected by a construction project near the standpipe and moved to waive those bills for three months. "Tony made the first motion to waive their trash bill for three months," the meeting record states. Evan Casey seconded, and the motion carried 3-0.

Council discussed the scope of the waiver: initially a suggestion to begin with two months was raised by Daryl May, but the council approved three months covering approximately six residents near the construction corridor. The council assigned staff follow-up to identify the specific houses that will receive the waiver.
