(A) Generally. There shall be and there is hereby established a sticker rate as follows:
Large disposal bag (over 20 gallon size) | $3.00 |
Small disposal bag (up to 20 gallon size) | $1.50 |
(B) Transition. The foregoing rates shall be effective immediately upon the passage and approval of this chapter. All stickers purchased prior to the effective date of the rate change, whether by vendors or retailers (for sale to the public) or by city residents, are and shall remain valid stickers for purposes of compliance with the provisions of this chapter.
(C) Tote system. An alternative to the sticker system may be offered to residents semi-annually. Residents may purchase a 95-gallon tote from the City of Quincy at the cost which the city paid for the tote. The tote would be picked up once per week. The cost of the service is $12.99 per month and will be assessed with the resident’s water bill. Garbage, refuse and rubbish placed in the tote would not require any stickers. If the resident fails to pay the bill when due, the city may terminate collection of the garbage tote and additionally, may take possession of the garbage tote.
