This is a letter of protest for the increase in solid wastes rates. The rate was just
increased six months ago and I as a property owner do not agree with the rate increase or
other means of billing by South County Sanitary Service.
I have one tax bill for subject property, APN# 007 192 069 31, which I have to pay for
two services. There is a rental on the property and yet when it is vacant I still have to pay
a fee. This is double dipping by the sanitary company and I reject all increases they have
proposed.
Thank you.
To the City of Arroyo Grande, California. 3/6/2013

This is my letter protesting the proposed increase in the solid waste management
system rates,
It is recognized that the cost of doing business has increased during the present
Economic situation. It follows, that the cost of living has increased as has Business
costs increased.
Many Residents are seniors and are on fixed income. As result, we must give up the
Luxury of four pick-ups oer month to three or two pick-ups
per month.
The waste management company should provide an option of reduced services
without increasing the rates.
I would volunteer to help the management company develop such a plan. It is
Important that we get Creative to help us all survive today's economical Setback.
ThankYo~, <:J~tl!if~
