RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Resolution No. 2018/54, to supersede and replace Resolution No. 2009/530, authorizing appropriate County officials continued access to confidential County Sales and Use Tax Records.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None. Administrative only.

BACKGROUND:

Section 7056 of the Revenue and Taxation Code provides that any county, city or district wishing to examine the Board of Equalization's records to verify that transactions subject to sales or transactions and use tax have been reported properly, must adopt a resolution authorizing one (or more) of its officials, employees, or other designated persons to examine the appropriate sales or transactions and use tax records of the Board.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Local officials allowed access to confidential SBOE records should note that the use of such information is limited to governmental purposes and is not subject to release in public meetings or other such forums.

This new resolution is required to update information due to retirements and title changes since the last resolution passed by the Board on November 9, 2010.
