DICKINSON, JR. 32304 <br />COMPTROLLER OF FLORIDA <br />October 11, 1973 <br />TO THE BOARD OF COUNTY <br />COMMISSIONERS ADDRESSED <br />Dear Sir: <br />To clarify some confusion created by our letter of October 1, <br />1973 relative.to the report required under Chapter 73-349, <br />Laws of Florida, I. have today written to the Tax Assessors, <br />and Tax Collectors and am enclosing a copy of each of those <br />letters for your information and guidance. <br />We realize that there is a conflict between Section 30.50(5), <br />Florida Statutes, which allows the Sheriff to hold his books <br />open for thirty days to charge any expenses which have been <br />incurred to the current budget, and the new law requiring a <br />report within fifteen days after the close of the fiscal year. <br />Since a legal opinion has not been requested on this matter, and <br />there is not time to obtain one prior to October 15th the Board <br />of County Commissioners will have to use their judgment as to <br />whether to report any Sheriff not filing by October 15th. <br />Assuring you of our cooperation at all times, I remain <br />Sincerely yours, <br />FRED 0. DICKINSON, JR. <br />COMPTROLLER OF FLORIDA <br />0 <br />By. <br />B.
