§ 6-1.407. Collection of Tax; Security.  


Latest version.
  • The Tax Collector, whenever he/she deems it necessary to insure compliance with this chapter, may require any person subject thereto to deposit with the Tax Collector such security as the Tax Collector may determine. The amount of the security shall be fixed by the Tax Collector, but shall not be greater than twice the person's estimated average liability for the period for which said person files returns, determined in such manner as the Tax Collector deems proper. The amount of the security may be increased or decreased by the Tax Collector. The Tax Collector may sell the security at public auction if it becomes necessary so to do in order to recover any tax or any amount required to be collected, interest, or additional taxes due. Notice of the sale may be served upon the person who deposited the security and upon the taxpayer, if different, personally or by mail. Upon any sale, any surplus above the amounts due shall be returned to the person who deposited the security.
