A | Consideration and Approval of Municipal Services Accounts, Miscellaneous Account Receivable, Transaction Privilege Tax, Insufficient Funds and Library Write-offs: Delinquency and Uncollectible Accounts for Fiscal Year 2022-23. | ||||||
Management Services Director Rick Tadder addressed Council and stated that the matter | |||||||
before them was part of the annual process to write off uncollectible accounts. New that year was the inclusion of several library accounts that had been deemed uncollectible. For municipal accounts receivable, old sales tax accounts, and insufficient fund checks, the total request to write-off was $76,462.86 which was a reduction of about $25,000 from the prior year. Mr. Tadder expressed gratitude to his team for their hard work to collect what they were able to and working with customers to find creative solutions to continue service. Mr. Tadder explained that the request included write-offs for library accounts for about $1.1 million. It was the first time library accounts had been included in the write-off requests, which was why the amount was so high. The date range covered 1987 through 2016. The accounts had been non-active for seven years and there was no direct fiscal impact due to the age of the accounts. In the future, library accounts would be included in the annual write-off process. |
