The following fees are hereby established as the fees to
be paid to the City by the occupant or owner, as hereinafter set
forth, for providing and making available a service for the
collection of rubbish and/or garbage from each residential unit.
The Light and Water Department of the City is hereby designated
as the agency for the collection of such fees. A fee of $1.25
per month, or portion thereof, or such other charge as may be
fixed from time to time by the City Council by resolution, is
hereby established upon each occupied residential unit, but no
change of said charge shall be effective less than thirty days
from the date of the resolution changing the same. Such charge
shall be collected monthly upon billing by the Light and Water
Department and shall be payable upon presentation of statement
and shall be delinquent thirty days thereafter.
The said charge shall be included on the bill for electric
service. Notwithstanding the imposition of the said fee or charge
upon the occupant, wherever the bill for electricity is paid or
payable by the owner or other person, such owner or other person
shall also be charged and pay said fee for rubbish and/or garbage
collection service on behalf of the occupant or occupants. If
the owner or other person pays such fee and he is not the occupant
of some or any premises for which it is so paid, such owner or
other person shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the
occupant or occupants on behalf of whom such fee was paid by him.
In cases where two or more residential units are served by the
City with electricity through a common or master meter, the person
responsible for the payment of the bill for electricity shall also
be responsible for the payment of said rubbish and/or garbage
collection service fees for each occupied unit served by such meter
and shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the occupant
or occupants.
For all occupied residential units where electricity is not
furnished by the Light and Water Department of the City, the said
charge per month per each occupied residential unit shall be pay-
able bi-monthly by occupant in advance upon presentation of a
statement therefor by the Light and Water Department.
No person shall willfully fail, neglect, or refuse to pay the
fee herein prescribed for such service within the time herein pres-
cribed or to reimburse any person entitled to such reimbursement
within ten days after demand therefor; and in addition to any other
penalties, the City may discontinue the rubbish and/or garbage col-
lection services for non-payment of any such fee. In addition the
said fee shall become a civil liability and debt due to the City
from any person upon whom said charge is imposed."

this ordinance and shall publish the same as required by law.
