RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller to issue a refund of overpayment of documentary transfer tax totaling an amount not to exceed $523 to specified parties.

BACKGROUND:

The County Clerk-Recorder received an excess payment of documentary transfer tax or should not have collected transfer tax from the following parties in the amounts listed in the table that follows:
