Background: On April 1212023 City Council set the Waste Management Franchise Fee of 3% from July 1, 2023 until October 1, 2024. This fee was collected by Waste Management and used to offset the bad debt for their billing since the universal collection method went into effect July 1, 2023. The City Council then approved Resolution R-23-37 on December 13, 2023 establishing its intent to use the uniform method for collection via non -ad valorem special assessments for the cost of providing solid waste collection and disposal services to properties within the incorporated area of the City. Effective October 1, 2024 the City of Sebastian will begin making monthly payments to Waste Management for the universal residential waste collection. The 6% franchise fee will be used to cover the tax discount for early payments, the fee by the Tax Collector's Office, and to offset any deficits due to delinquent tax accounts.
