Boonville Charge included in tax bill or other bill ordinance (§ 11-39)

Chapter 11: Litter · Article III. City Removal

When the city has effected the collection and disposal of dangerous litter or has paid for its collection and disposal, the cost thereof, plus accrued interest at the rate of eight per cent per annum from the date of the completion of the work to the date of payment, if not paid by forwarding a bill to such owner by the city, shall be due and payable by said owner at the time of receipt of such bill. In the case of an owner of property exempt from real estate taxes, the bill for the cost of such collection and disposal, plus the accrued interest, may be mailed by regular mail, addressed to the owner at his last-known address as furnished to or by the city. When computing the actual cost of the collection and disposal of such dangerous litter, the city shall include in such actual cost, before any interest charges, a service charge equal to 25 per cent of the costs of labor and of the use of equipment, as well as any dumping charges, to reflect the administrative costs incurred by the city in connection with the billing for such collection and disposal.
