HB 2011 -- Common-Interest Communities Co-Sponsors: Cunningham, Liese, Fraser This bill requires the governing body of every political subdivision to reimburse or provide trash service to a qualified common-interest community to the same extent as the political subdivision provides these services to other owners of individual residential properties within such political subdivision. If the political subdivision elects to reimburse the common-interest community for services, the payment must be made at the end of the calendar year and is limited to the annual expenditures for the preceding calendar year actually incurred by the qualified common-interest community. The reimbursement is to be increased on a graded basis over a five-year period, beginning January 1, 2003. The first year's reimbursement is 20% of the actual cost, increasing to 100% of the actual cost in the fifth year. The bill requires a contract between the governing body of the political subdivision and the common-interest community to implement the responsibilities of the political subdivision.Copyright (c) Missouri House of Representatives
