The State will allow us to simply bill the customers the prior amounts and not charge interest and <br />penalties. For commercial accounts with one water service charge, this amount would be $11.16, two <br />units would be $22.32. There are approximately 340 taxable commercial accounts with 280 (83 %) <br />being billed two or less water service charges. The largest of the remaining customers would be <br />Levitz, Slumberland, St. Jude, and Cub at 23 -27 units ($257), Market Place at 35 units ($391), local <br />bars and restaurants range from 6 to 16 units ($67 to $179), small business and office parks round out <br />the balance of the accounts greater than two units and this group ranges from 3 up to 16 units. The <br />group with two or less units would be back- billed $2,800 of the $10,000, or 28% of the amount due. <br />Therefore, the larger customers will pay 72% of the $10,000 or $7,200. <br />Staff is recommending that Council agree to the managed audit attached that will avoid interest and <br />penalties on approximately $10,000 at a minimum. Additionally staff recommends that the prior <br />sales tax amounts be billed to the commercial users as the gross amounts are not considered <br />burdensome to any in relationship to their current charges. <br />cc: Joel Hanson <br />Jessica Jagoe <br />2 <br />
