What accommodations are being made for people on fixed income who just can afford a rate increase?
Unfortunately, it is not legally possible to offer discounted rates to fixed income residents without making up the discount from some other source. State law (Proposition 218) requires that all residents be charged equally for the actual cost of a service. There are some actions residents can take to lower monthly rates for waste collection services. By using a 38-gallon garbage container residents can save $3 per month.
