FOR COLLECTION OF SOLID WASTE SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS
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, 2009 and
ending September 30, 2010.
The hearing will be held at 5:05 p.m. on September 10, 2009, 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, 2009, is $27,913,730. The following table

Copies of the Solid Waste Assessment Ordinance, Initial
Assessment Resolution and the preliminary assessment roll are
available for inspection at the Office of the City Clerk of Miami,
Florida, 3500 Pan American Drive, Miami, Florida.
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.
If you have any questions, please contact the City of Miami at
(305) 416-1570, Monday through Friday between 8:30 a.m. and
