INDIAN V R R COUNTY <br />GENE E. MORRIS <br />TAX COLLECTOR <br />Ms. Alma Lee Loy <br />Chairman Board of County Commission <br />Indian River County, Florida <br />Dear Alma Lee: <br />TELEPHONE: (308) 882.2303 <br />P. 0. BOX 1509 <br />VERO BEACH, FLORIDA - 32960 <br />November 19, 1975 <br />Attached hereto is the E & I List for the 1973 Tax Roll, covering errors, <br />insolvencies and double assessments. <br />As you are well aware, the 1973 Tax Roll was late in being certified for <br />collection and has presented many problems since the day -we received it <br />for collection on May 12, 1974. The tax bills were mailed on May 24, 1974, <br />and the delinquent taxes were advertised as quickly as possible after that <br />date. The tax warrants for delinquent tangible personal property were <br />issued September 16, 1974. The tax certificate sale for delinquent 1973 <br />taxes was held October 10, 1974. <br />We have experienced many problems with the closing of the 1973 Tax Roll <br />in getting a final printout from the computer service. All monies were <br />properly distributed with the exception of the small amount of $30,536.74, <br />which could not be properly distributed until I could be satisfied that <br />it was correct. <br />Since the delinquent date for paying 1973 taxes came near July 1, 1974, we <br />then had to temporarily stop work on that in order to handle our tag renewals <br />from July 1, 1974 to August 20, 1974. When the tax sale was held_October 10, <br />1974, before this could be properly completed we received the 1974 Tax Roll <br />for collection on October 29, 1974. This was then the more important thing <br />to handle in order that taxing agencies could begin receiving 1974 tax monies. <br />I have not filed this report prior to this time since all necessary <br />advertisements and sales had been properly conducted and this to me was of <br />lesser importance. <br />The 1974 Tax Roll had final changes made on October 17, 1975, as.approved by <br />the Department of Revenue and the Board of Tax Adjustment and the final report <br />on the 1974 Tax Roll is now being completed. <br />Thank you for your cooperation in this matter, I remain <br />Sincerely yours, <br />Gene E. Morris <br />County Tax Collector <br />NOV 1 91975 E soot 24 Pa E1.42 <br />
