RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller to issue a refund of overpayment of documentary transfer tax totaling $1,324.95 to specified parties.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The recommendation will result in a reduction of $1,324.95 to the County General Fund: $713.90 is from the 2016-2017 fiscal year and $611.05 is from the 2015-2016 fiscal year.

BACKGROUND:

The County Clerk-Recorder received duplicate payment of documentary transfer tax from the following parties in the amounts listed below:

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Old Republic Title Company 419 Sycamore Valley Road W Danville, CA 94526	Series # 2016-0143812	$713.90
Stewart Title Attn: Michele Weaver 500 N. Broadway, FL9 St. Louis, MO 6102	Series # 2015-0156283	$611.05

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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