Item Title:Solid Waste MSBU Special Assessment Write-off
Date:8/28/2017
Department:Office of Management and Budget
Background:

Nassau County Board of County Commissioners levied an annual Solid Waste MSBU special assessment for fiscal years 1987/1988 through 2006/2007.  Liens were filed on delinquent real estate properties, however this process is not available for Mobile Home assessments (tangible property). 

As of August 1, 2017 the receivable balance per the general ledger is $807,074.20 with an Allowance of Uncollectables of $(778,874).

Payments for delinquent assessments are received as properties are sold and recorded lien satisfied, although small in amount, with delinquent collections in FY16/17 to date of just over $1,000.
