RESOLUTION NO. 6286
A RESOLUTION TO LEVY THE COST OF REMOVAL OF GARBAGE OR OTHER
OFFENSIVE MATTER FROM STREETS, ALLEYS OR ON ANY PREMISES AS A
SPECIAL TAX AGAINST PROPERTY FROM WHICH SUCH MATTER WAS
DEPOSITED, AND THE DISPOSITION THEREOF.
WHEREAS, Section 744-4105 MCA, gives a City Council power to provide for levying the cost
of removal of garbage or other offensive matter from streets, alleys, or any premises
as a special tax against that property from which the same was deposited, the City
Council deems such a method more equitable and just than paying for such removal
from the General Fund of the City; and
WHEREAS, at a public hearing held on the 7th day of June, 2025, the City Council did consider
all objections made to said estimate and to the basis of levy and assessment for
payment for said cost.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
KALISPELL, MONTANA:
SECTION 1. The assessments for removal of garbage or other offensive matter for the
fiscal year 2025-2026 are hereby estimated to be $1,890,000 and the City
Council finds that the cost of the removal of garbage and other offensive
matter from the various lots and parcels of land within the city and benefited
by such removal is the amount as shown by the records maintained in City
Hall.
SECTION 2. That the assessments charged are hereby established as outlined in attached
Exhibit 1 approved by Council through Resolution 6210B on July 1, 2024.
Charges for these, and all other garbage collection services shall be in
accordance with the schedule maintained in the office of the Director
of Public Works.
PASSED AND APPROVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL AND SIGNED BY THE MAYOR OF
THE CITY OF KALISPELL THIS 18TH DAY OF AUGUST, 2025.
