§ 7-330. Termination.

If, at any time, the contractor shall fail to substantially perform terms, covenants, or conditions herein set forth, the city shall notify the contractor by certified mail addressed to the contractor at the address set forth herein of specific reasons in support of city's claim that the contractor has substantially breached the terms and provisions as stated herein. The contractor shall be allowed thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of notice to remedy any failure to perform. Should the city deem failures to be corrected, no hearing shall be held.

Should the contractor not remedy its performance, after a hearing described herein, the city may terminate the rights and privileges granted to the contractor herein. A notice shall be sent to the contractor no earlier than ten (10) days before a hearing is scheduled. The notice shall specify the time and place of the hearing, and shall include the specific reasons in support of the city's claim that the contractor has substantially breached the terms and provisions as stated herein. Should the city still deem the contractor to have failed in its performance, said hearing shall be conducted in public by the city council and the contractor shall be allowed to be present, and shall be given the full opportunity to answer such claims that are set out against the contractor. If the city council makes a finding that the contractor has failed to provide adequate refuse and/or collection services for the city, or has otherwise substantially failed to perform its duties as specified herein, the city council may terminate this chapter.
