For businesses that meet the definition of Small Commercial Unit established by this regulation, which present a verifiable monthly waste production of between 0 and 50 kg, the applicable rate shall be equivalent to that established for the Residential category. The Municipality, through a reasoned and individualized administrative resolution, shall determine when a business meets this condition. Compliance shall be reviewed annually in conjunction with the Licenses (Patentes) department or its equivalent. Businesses in categories higher than Commercial 1, as well as those in a Mixed Category, are excluded from this condition.
In the event that there are commercial licensees categorized as Commercial 1 whose generation does not exceed 50 kg per month, but who are not Small Commercial Units, these may be considered for the application of the equalization provided in the preceding paragraph. Provided that it is determined, by representative measurements from four consecutive weighings, that the non-valuable waste generated does not exceed 50 kg. In this case, the same procedure as the preceding paragraph shall be followed.
When residential or commercial units exceed the volume of solid waste corresponding to their category and no next immediate category exists, in addition to the rate, additional charges equivalent to their condition shall be charged for each excess. An excess shall be considered from one kg more up to the amount comparable to the maximum kg of each category. The additional charge shall be equivalent to the base rate determined for each category. As many additional charges may be collected as excesses occur.
When the excess waste production exceeds one ton of waste per month, the Municipality shall assess the possibility of continuing to provide the service. In the event that the amount generated exceeds the Municipality's capacity, the taxpayer shall be excluded from the provision of this service due to their high volume.
