Property taxes continue to rise while imposing additional fees such as this. I don't think I'm getting my moneys worth.

Taxes here are way to high. The county offers nothing in return. They could even reduce the school taxes some for seniors.

Do away with these fees. Most of us seniors are on fixed incomes. We are seeing Increased dumping on private properties and in ditches.

I agree with this 100%. It's really not fair to the people who can not afford it but definitely need it.

Fee is too high. My homeowner taxes should cover this service.

This is another hardship placed on these people already struggling. For example: medication, medical supplies, etc...

We were recycling cardboard and glass, now burning and throwing in curbside pickup. Need fees reduced, so much more garbage/furniture tossed in the ditches along our country roads now

Yes. I live on a SS check and it hurts to pay these fees. Reduce the fees for seniors over 60, and the others mentioned.

I will soon be 62, and already on disability. The fees are completely out of my reach and budget, making day to day life even MORE difficult!
