(a) The board of supervisors of each county may collect or contract for the collection, or both, of garbage, waste, refuse, rubbish, offal, trimmings, or other refuse matter under such terms and conditions as may be prescribed by the board of supervisors by resolution or ordinance. For such purposes the board of supervisors may either levy a yearly tax on property within the unincorporated area of the county or impose a reasonable charge against the real property benefited for the services provided. The tax or charge shall not be applicable to property within existing garbage disposal districts.
(b) If the county provides compulsory collection service, a resolution or ordinance adopted pursuant to this section shall provide for reduced charges, rebates, or exemptions for properties that do not require regular collection service. The resolution or ordinance shall exempt undeveloped property from compulsory service.
