The business owner in question says her monthly bill has gone from RD$300 to RD$900. Not sure where she gets RD$900 from because according to Junta Distrital's website it is RD$500 for a small business & RD$1000 for a medium sized one.
It appears there is discontent because no-one was consulted about privatising the rubbish collection.
As to the legality issues - wait for Dr. Guzman to comment. |
The business owner probably hasn't paid her bill in three months, that would explain the $900 pesos.. ($300 x 3)
I pay my garbage bill promptly, as well as water, electricity.. etc., even though the pick up service in our area is sporatic at best(what will they do if I don't pay, stop not picking up???)
I usually pay my garbage bill in the office of CAASD, where the ADN has a small desk for collections. They had to go find the girl that works at the desk, because she was away.
When I mentioned to her that she didn't look too busy, she laughed and told me that I was the only person to pay that week(it was a Friday)
No wonder they're raising the prices. It's just like the CDE.
Charge more to the ones that pay, to make up for everyone that doesn't pay.
