WBAY-TV Green Bay-Fox Cities-Northeast Wisconsin News: City Throws Out Fight for Condo Garbage Pickup
Thanks to Nancy Levy for this interesting dispute between a municipality (none other than Green Bay, Wisconsin, which claims to have a football team) and a condo association over the perennial "double taxation" issue.

A community of condominium owners on Green Bay's east side is upset with the city council, which trashed their seven-month battle. Taking out the garbage seems like such a simple process. But to Joan Heim, it's an unfair one. "Fifty-six homeowners are angry right now because we're paying taxes and we get nothing," said Heim of the Alpine Point Condo Association. Each unit at Alpine Point Condos pays about $70 a year for private garbage pickup. But they say because they pay city taxes as well, they should be entitled the same services as other people in the city, including garbage services. Tuesday night the city council voted and their request failed.
