Title 3 REVENUE AND FINANCE
Chapter 3.16 BUSINESS OCCUPATIONAL PRIVILEGE TAX
3.16.077 Examination of returns--Recomputation, credits, deficiencies.
As soon as practicable after a return is filed, the finance
director shall examine it. If it appears that the correct amount of tax to be
remitted may be greater or less than that shown in the return, the tax shall be
recomputed by the finance director. If the amount paid exceeds that which is
due, the excess shall be refunded or credited against any subsequent remittance
from the taxpayer. If the amount paid is less than the amount due, the amount of
the deficiency with a penalty of ten percent of the amount of the deficiency
plus interest on both the deficiency and the penalty shall be due and payable in
accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.16.083. If any part of the
deficiency is due to fraud with the intent to evade the tax, then there shall be
added a fraud penalty as set forth in Section 3.16.088. (Ord. 1993-7 Exh. B
