On a percentage basis, the $49,139.64 represents .6% (.006) of the personal and manufactured structure taxes levied in the 2009-10 tax year ($7,041,864.43 and $825,831.46, respectively). A summary of prior cancellations by tax year is as follows: 2000-01 $ 72,933.00 2001-02 53,965.00 2003-04 29,291.00 2004-05 26,537.00 2006-07 49,553.67 2008-09 86,903.57 The $49,139.64 consists of. 1) thirteen uncollected manufactured structure accounts totaling taxes of $5,036.48 and 2) twenty three uncollectible personal property accounts totaling $44,103.16. Categorically, the items being cancelled are as follows: 1. Manufactured Structures abandoned under ORS 90.675 (2 accounts) $ 741.22 2. Bankruptcies (4 accounts) 8,817.74 3. Dissolved Corporations and other non-bankruptcy Business failures (19 accounts) 35,285.42 4. Other (11 manufactured structure accounts) 4,295.26 TOTAL (36 accounts) $ 49,139.64 Pursuant to Oregon law, Laurie Craghead, Assistant Legal Counsel, has reviewed the amounts to be cancelled and agrees that these accounts are not collectible. Page 2 of 2 2010 Personal Property Tax Cancellations The Tax Department staff has used a reasonable and consistent level of collection effort to try to collect the taxes while minimizing the collection costs and negative relations with the taxpayer. Abandoned manufactured structures are governed by certain laws and statues that provide for the cancellation of taxes. Bankruptcies are pursued to the extent permitted by U.S. bankruptcy law. Oregon law requires that a final personal property return be filed to terminate the taxation of business property. This frequently does not occur, resulting in the continued assessment and taxation of property that is no longer being used in a business and may no longer exist. A portion of the taxes included under dissolved corporations and business failures (item 3. above) relate to taxes imposed on non-existent businesses and/or assets. We have modified aspects of our collection process to accommodate the realities of the current economic climate. We have significantly increased the use of garnishments of wages and checking accounts. We also have increased the number of attachments of personal property tax accounts to real property accounts. We have successfully collected a number of personal accounts where the business owner's personal residence is being foreclosed upon by their lender. Lenders tend to pay the taxes promptly in order to extinguish our priority lien. We have also employed preventative measures such as sending letters to local leasing companies and banks reminding them of their responsibility to satisfy tax liens when repossessing business equipment. The response to these tools has definitely produced positive results. We recognize that in this environment it is often no longer prudent to afford a taxpayer as much time to bring their account current as it once was.
