Los Angeles County Municipal Code Part 1 Athens-Woodcrest-Olivita Garbage Disposal District

The ordinance codified in Part 1 of Chapter 20.90 shall be known as the "garbage collection and disposal service fee ordinance" of the Athens-Woodcrest-Olivita Garbage Disposal District and may be cited as such.

(Ord. 12217 Art. 1 § 101, 1980.)

The District is responsible for providing garbage collection and disposal within its boundaries. The amount of money from ad valorem taxes available to the District is inadequate to fund the cost of service. The District's collection and disposal service must be continued without interruption in order to protect the public health and safety of the residents therein and the general

public. It is, therefore, necessary to impose a garbage collection and disposal service fee upon the properties within the District. The voters of the District have approved imposition of the fee. In order to avoid the substantial costs of establishing a billing system for the collection of fees, the board of supervisors finds that the fees should be collected on the tax roll. Due to the legal deadlines for such tax collection, it is necessary for the ordinance codified in this part to be effective by September 25, 1980. Since the District's services are required for the collection and disposal of garbage, the board of supervisors finds that the most equitable basis upon which to base the service fee will be according to the current property use classification derived from the assessor's tax rolls.
