Solid Waste Exemption
Social Services Division provides interviewing, screening, and eligibility determination to applicants requesting assistance based on financial hardship. Upon approval, the applicant would be exempt from the County’s solid waste collection and the recycle assessment for homesteaded residential properties. This exemption is established by County resolution, which is based on the Federal Poverty Level.
