The City or its authorized agent may do random door-to-door verification to determine occupancy and whether services are taking place. Property owners, whether the residence is owner-occupied, rented or otherwise, found in violation will be required to register for sanitation service and provide the City or its agent proof of when they became residents or owners of the property. At that time, they will be responsible for the payment of all past due fees, penalties, interest and a twenty-five dollar ($25) processing fee. In addition, the City or its agent will make a decision as to whether they should be charged with theft of service and if charges should be filed with the District Magistrate.
