FISCAL IMPACT:

The recommendation will result in a reduction of $4,190.45 to the County General Fund: $3,399.00 is from the 2020-2021 fiscal year and $791.45 is from the 2021-2022 fiscal year.

BACKGROUND:

The County Clerk-Recorder received duplicate payment of documentary transfer taxes from the specified parties.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to reimburse the parties would cause them to pay more than legally required for documentary transfer tax.
