RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller to issue a refund of overpayment of documentary transfer tax totaling $605 to specified parties.

RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

Orange Coast Title Company
4713 First Street #100
Pleasanton, CA 94566

Series #2015-0232930

Overpayment of $577.50

Chicago Title Company
8630 Brentwood Blvd Ste A2
Brentwood, CA 94513

Series #2017-0124230

Overpayment of $27.50

FISCAL IMPACT:

The recommendation will result in reduction of $605 to the County General Fund: $27.50 was received in fiscal year 2017-18 and $577.50 was received in fiscal year 2015-2016. $605 will be refunded out of the current fiscal year budget (2017- 2018).

BACKGROUND:

The County Clerk-Recorder received overpayment of documentary transfer tax from the specified parties and a refund of the overpayment is recommended.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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