On November 10, 2006, 190 homeowners in the Flower Valley Neighborhood petitioned the Department of Public Works and Transportation in writing, requesting to be transferred from Subdistrict B to Subdistrict A, so that they could receive County-contracted refuse collection service. DPWT has determined that the requirements of the "10-Year Plan" have been met and has verified that the petition contains 25 percent or more of the residences within the proposed transfer area. Notification was sent to homeowners in the proposed transfer area that households in Subdistrict A are charged an annual collection fee instead of contracting for private trash collection. It also described the current level of service, the annual fee for County-provided refuse collection service, the annual fee for County-provided refuse collection service, the boundaries of the proposed transfer area and the date and location of the public hearing on the transfer. Homeowners were also provided with a ballot that had to be submitted within 60 days after the notice to homeowners was sent on December 11, 2006.The results of the voting were that 57.25% of the voters favored the transfer. Since that exceeds 50 percent of the number of residences in the area, DPWT recommended that the transfer be approved. Within 30 days of the Executive Decision, DPWT mails a notice of the County Executive's decision to each homeowner in the transfer area. Effective Date: 3/27/07.
