Notice is given that the City Commission of the City of Miami will conduct a public
hearing to consider imposing Solid Waste special assessments for the provision of Solid
Waste services within the City of Miami for the Fiscal Year commencing October 1, 2010
and ending September 30, 2011.
The hearing will be held at 5:05 p.m. on September 14, 2010, in the City
Commission Chambers of City Hall, 3500 Pan American Drive, Miami, Florida, for the
purpose of receiving public comment on the proposed assessments. All affected property
owners have a right to appear at the hearing and to file written objections with the City
Commission within 20 days of this notice. If a person decides to appeal any decision made
by the City Commissioners with respect to any matter considered at the hearing, such
person will need a record of the proceedings and may need to ensure that a verbatim
record is made, including the testimony and evidence upon which the appeal is to be made.
In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, persons needing a special
accommodation or an interpreter to participate in this proceeding should contact the City
Clerk at (305) 250-5360 at least seven days prior to the date of the hearing.
The assessment for each parcel of property will be based upon each parcel's
classification and the total number of billing units attributed to that parcel. The total
estimated Solid Waste Assessed Costs to be assessed and collected for the Fiscal Year
commencing October 1, 2010, is $27,306,745. The following table reflects the proposed

Copies of the Solid Waste Assessment Ordinance, Initial Assessment Resolution

Unless proper steps are initiated in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure relief
within 20 days from the date of City Commission action at the above hearing (including the
method of apportionment, the rate of assessment and the imposition of assessments), such
action shall be the final adjudication of the issues presented.
The assessments will be collected on the same bill as ad valorem taxes. Failure to
pay the assessment will result in either the commencement of foreclosure proceedings or
cause a tax certificate to be issued against the property which may result in a loss of title.
