Sanitation Rate Increase Effective 11-01-2025

Posted on October 3rd, 2025

With a 6.4% landfill increase this year along with increased operational and equipment costs, the present rates charged for residential household collection will not provide sufficient revenues to cover the annual expenditures and therefore residential garbage rates will increase $2.00 per month from $27.00 to $29.00 per household plus tax effective November 1st and with the costs involving street rental uses, dispatching, billing and other administrative fees associated with collection and disposal of commercial dumpsters it necessitates that the city incorporate a 10% monthly franchise fee to the commercial customer to recoup those costs already incurred by the City.
