Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter or any other provisions of the city code to the contrary, an exemption from placing a container at the curb as described in Section 8.28.100C may be made, upon approval of an application to the Director, to certain service users. If approved, a "pack out" service will be provided free of charge, where the operator will roll the containers out from the house, service them and roll them back (containers cannot be in garages or behind fences). The requester must attest and provide verifiable documentation that:
A. They are physically unable to place a full waste container at the curb (must provide a doctor's note attesting that individual is physically unable to place refuse containers curbside or roll them back after service), AND
B. They can demonstrate financial inability to subscribe or pay for assistance in moving a container to the curb, as determined by the current standards for household low income thresholds by the California Alternative Rates for Energy program (CARE). This can be done by providing a copy of the most current year signed IRS tax form or copies of the last three (3) employers pay stubs, AND
C. There is no other able bodied person living or staying more than 2 hours a day during the week at the address or available that is physically able to place a full waste container curbside.
The Director is authorized to set standards, terms and conditions for said exemptions. The exemption provided for in this section shall be applied for on a form provided by the city and will allow the recipient to receive in-yard service exempt from the applicable curbside "packout" fee as established by resolution of the city council. Customers not qualifying for an exemption but still desiring to have their containers packed out must apply for the service and pay the applicable fee for the service as set forth and approved by City Council in the City's Rates and Fees.
