Who does this impact?
The potential new fees would apply to eligible single-family homes and multi-family residences with four or fewer residences on a single lot that receive trash and recycling collection services from the City of San Diego. Most multi-family residences citywide are already paying for trash and recycling collection services to a private company through their homeowner association fees, rents or other payments.
