Hope City Council Adopts Garbage Fee Revisions
In a special session last night Hope City Council voted to revise health department fees effective May 1. The aim is to offset rising expenses after an audit showed the department ran $20,485 underfunded but used $38,865 more last year. The plan raises residential garbage fees by 50 cents per household and imposes higher rates for downtown businesses and industries. A special committee will revise downtown policy and explore a trash tax to start soon.
