(A) The service rates for all residential customers shall be adopted by ordinance of the Board of Trustees and shall become effective upon the date specified therein. Any adjustment to this rate shall take place no more often than annually and shall be based upon the Consumer Price Index–All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the previous calendar year.
(B) The service rates for all commercial customers shall be determined on a private contractual basis between the commercial customer and its commercial contractor. In the event the city determines that no viable competition exists for commercial collection, the Board of Trustees reserves the right to regulate commercial contractor rates. All fees for the collection and disposal of solid waste will be collected by the commercial contractor with whom the commercial customer has a contract.
(C) The users of solid waste containers supplied by a BOT-approved contractor shall pay a $1 monthly environmental impact fee for each container in their possession. This fee shall be collected by the BOT-approved contractor and remitted to the city together with any franchise fees owed.
