Weigant"

Subject: Waiver / invoice clarifcation
Just spoke with Susan,
First and foremost, per the contract, the City will pay MAS for any
amounts waived or non-collected.
But
that is not
how
we like to do business.
MAS will send taxpayer protests on
a
separate invoice.
1
per. The
taxpayer protest summary will contain
an
MAS recommendation
to
accept or
reject. If the recommendation
is to
reject it
is
because the
taxpayer'
s
protest letter contains no valid reason to waive. MAS will invoice the
City for the full amount under the assumption that you will concur. If
the
MAS recommendation is to accept, it is because
we
agree
with the
taxpayer. MAS will invoice
the
City for
only
the tax/
fee
portion
with
the assumption
that the
City will concur.
If
the City
waives something for "legit"
and
supportable reasons -
simply reduce our invoice and advise.
If
the
City waives something for unsupportable reasons - you should pay
the full amount.
Hope this helps

Subject: RE: Call?
Call me anytime. We close at 4pm. No attachment.
1. 90 day amnesty. This
is ok.
So
if
the
taxpayer
turns
themselves in = no penalties. If
the
taxpayer pays
an
outstanding bill
in 90 days = no penalties.
What about
the
future
guy we hit in
200
days. He gets no love.
2. Low gross - this
is
ok but not perfect. Many corporations
exist to lose money. Including zero gross. I have three (3) corps that
are zero gross (and yes, they have a business license). I highly
recommend you deal with this in the "Home Occ
Exemption" section.
The
rate and reasons are already in place. Cant' stress
enough
the
issue
of
dealing
with zero gross as
compared to
low gross -
they
are not the
same.
Another
hot
spot
would
be a
case in which the taxpayer has
a
governmental issued permit/license". By default
and
definition, this
taxpayer can't claim zero gross
or
low gross.
It
will be no problem for MAS to include
a "
pay by date"
to
get your
penalties waived on our letters and notices.
I
can even split by in
town / out of town so you wil l really be giving love to the home field.
I,
as well, value this relationship.
I
will tell you that nothing (above) will have any real impact. When
in
conflict
the
human
runs
to denial and will
do
anything to stay
there.
When you call
their
bluff (
as
the City has just done) they must move
from denial
to
acceptance - and they don'
t
want
to.
Your "real"
business owners will take advantage but this will not have a financial
impact. The protesters will be unmoved and will continue
to
complain.
But the amnesty give the Council ability
to
step these guys into
enhanced enforcement. The vast majority of what MAS can do will reach
far past the next 90 days.

Kevin,

4/491
About to sit down
with the
Mayor.
Need to talk this afternoon.
Big
shift
in
last
5
days.
I sensed there was
a
very strong possibility that politics might well
result in canceling contract.
Staff presented and council adopted two
motions
that will, when
approved,
result
in ordinance changes that will:
provide a
90 -day
amnesty from
penalties. (back taxes stay in place)
provide
a
low-gross exemption allowing businesses that gross under
an
amount
to
be determined
to
qualify for
a $
10/annual licence.
We
obviously need to talk.
We
are
still
contracted
and
one of my comments
is
that we want
to
maintain a
long-
term relationship
with
MAS to continue helping
us with
compliance. I also
see some ways
to
craft our
approach to preserve
recovery of lost revenue (including penalties) from out-
of-
town
businesses as possible.
Have
attached
the presentation
I
gave last night.
What
is
your afternoon schedule?

Hi Susan
Just got
a
report from
a
taxpayer (
contractor) who claims bonnie told him that if he has
a
home based
business and does no work in the city, that he
is
not subject to taxation.
1.
We
both understand the he said / she said
2.
We
both understand the nature of contractor honesty
3. However,
with that
said, if
we
have
an

we should

Hi
guys,
We
caught with
a contactors license. We
billed
that account.
Then we caught
him
in a short term rental. He denied. We showed him
the on-line listing. The taxpayer became very
upset,
refused to discuss
the matter further, refused to provide any information
or documents
and
stated he will take this
matter
up with the City.
This
is
just a heads

that
he is
coming your way. Feel free to turn
him around and we will finish his account.

Ps - I think he
is
upset that he was

in such

OK I
might
not have answered this correctly, each business does need a separate business license (i.e.,
home
occupation license). What
I'
m
saying
is
the $66.
00 planning permit
charge
would only
be
charged
on
the first
business at
that
location because
I
research
the
address
file
to
make sure there are no
existing code enforcement issues. The second business
at
that location would not need the research.
Most home occupations are for an office only and I issue it. If
it'
s something that might create problems I
get planning
to
look
at
it. So
first
business would
pay $203.00 and
the second one would be $
137.

Hope that helps clarify what I'

Cathy,
you

Subject: RE: RE: Letter in response to Business License Audit
This
is
a
common taxpayer position. "
I
got
the license,
but
did not do
business until _________________"
It is
a
fake argument.
The taxpayer has advised a "superior" governmental agency (State - fill
in
agency name). They are now prevented, as a matter of law, from
telling
the lower
governmental agency (that'
s
you) that
they are
not
in
business, or have not started their business.
Taxpayers want to obtain a business license based upon attempts to do
business,
or
making a
sale.
This is simply
NOT the
nexus point for
taxation.
They have
spent money
on their
education, obtained
their
license = they are in business.
As to the issue
of
where.
All taxpayer'
s
are assumed to be
in
business in Morro bay, because again
they
have
told the state
that their primary place of business is Morro
Bay. This
is a rebuttable position, but
the
taxpayer must show that
they have a business license
for
their (a) primary place of business
b) from another jurisdiction.
They
simply
can't do this.
We also allow one other rebuttable with regard
to
Notary Commissions.
If their commission book
is "
fee free", that
is to
say they have never
charged for
a
signature,
we
will waive because in this case the taxpayer
is using the
commission
in support of their W2
employment.
As
to the issue of
understanding.
Every taxpayer
we
work with
clearly understands.
We
spend
an
extensive
amount of time
with them
answering all of
their
questions,
and even
answering the questions they did not ask about but impact their case.
They understand. They
are
hitting the City looking for anyone who will
give them a break, or attempting to muddy the water with he said/she
said.
If you would like, please feel
free
to re-direct these
types
of
taxpayers directly to
me.
You
can tell
them I
am the owner
or auditor
and that I
will be more than happy to assist them and answer all of
their questions.
On the
backside of all
the
above,
every
taxpayer knows that they have
the right
to
protest the findings. So why
are
they running down
to
talk
to
the City? Because they don'
t
want to engage their deceptions AND put
8/9/2019 Morro Bay-MAS Emails

their
money
on the
table.

Hi, Kevin,
We've
had a couple of customers complain about the gap
between
obtaining
a certificate
or
license,
such as
notary, and starting business.
For
your the
purpose of
the
audit,
the
individual needs to prove that
the
gap exists, or that they live in Morro Bay, but do not work in Morro
Bay.
We
will continue to advise everyone to call MAS, but you might want to
make
the "
proof"
part clearer. Or you may have, and this person didn'
t
get that.
When
we issue
a license,
we don'
t make
the person prove
that
they didn'
t
conduct business within
a gap
period.

Yup,
they
came in because
they got
our letter on
8/
28/2014.
1.
f
any taxpayer comes
to
the counter wanting
to
pay, there
is a 90% or
better chance
they got our
letter. Cathy
can:
a.
Redirect them
to
contact MAS, or
b. Process them and send me
an
email with the details so we can invoice it
to
the city.
In
general,
I
will need:
i. Date of application or copy of
application
ii. Amount paid
iii. Periods paid for.
iv.
The
attached statement is
perfect
This
is
also
a backstop
process. Many times
the
taxpayer
will
tell the counter
one
thing
I
just started
and
MAS knows
that
they started
in
1993. So when we invoice the paid
at city
payment
to
the
city,
we
also send the taxpayer a new billing basically calling them out on their
start
date.
Honesty counts. I will use our mail date
as
compared
to
the application date.
If
it
is
an MAS case, we will
invoice.
If
the taxpayer applied prior
to
our mail date + (
a
day or two for USPS delivery) ,
we
will not
invoice.
Just to make sure, did Cathy collect on this
account????

Subject: RE: Veteran exemption
Hi
Cathy,
I have closed
this
case, but the basis for closing it
is
incorrect.
History: go back in time, we had veterans returning from war. Many
were unable to provide a living due to injury or mental trauma and they
became homeless. Cities would use law enforcement to run them out of
town. They adapted and started to peddle pencils, flags, ect......
Cities
responded
by using their business license code to run them out of
town.
The
resulting
regulations which
exempt
veterans
is qualified "
unable
to
make
a
living".
It is
not
a
full
blown exemption simply
for
being a
veteran.
With regard
to
our 90 year old guy -
I
don'
t
really care.
I
have closed
his case.
However,
if
we
had a major employer,
30
million a year, 100 employees -
there would
be no
exemption

We

valid.
Billing is at $1252.
20
Taxpayer has
a
valid contractor license.
The
contactor license
is
bonded". This means that this taxpayer is locked and loaded
and
can
execute a contact at
any
moment. Second,
why
would
the
taxpayer
continue
to
pay his bond if he
is
not in business?
The CPA cleverly states there
is
no business income on his Sch
C.
Then
why
is
he filing a Sch C???? In order to continue to take business
losses based upon his valid contactor license.
An
last
by
not
least -
on 9/15/2014 stated he does not do
any work
in
the
City and is
not required
to have a license.
In
closing, we
on 10/1/
2014
and left a
message
requesting the
tax
returns. Clearly, he does not want to answer our
questions and would rather
try his
slick wording on the City.

Hi
Kevin,
Happy Monday
The attached was faxed directly to the City; wasn't sure if
you
were aware of it. Can you please advise
the status of this account? I'm also curious how you found this one, is
it
through fictitious business
names, or was there another indicator they are doing business.
If you prefer
I direct
these questions to someone else, please let me know.
Thank you,
Dana

Hi again,
I
feel like
I'm
being
a
huge pest...but
I'
m gonna bug you anyway. :)
I'
m
reviewing the
10/30 invoice
for
Protest
letter
claims
they have
a business
in
city of
SLO and do not
do
business in Morro Bay. I did
a
little digging but haven't spoken
to
them
yet.
The SLO
business
appears to
be Central California School,
of
which Mr.
is
the
Administrator. I
was
able to
check business licensing in SLO and found the have had
a
business license
at
least as
far
back
as
2010.
I
realize
they
should
proof, but
I'm curious if
there's
something
I'
m missing? Does
it
appear
based
on
your research they have
a
second business?
I
plan
to
contact them but wanted
to
make sure
I
understand
the
whole picture.
Thanks,
Dana

Subject: Consignment vs. rented space
Kevin,
If
I
remember correctly,
at
the business forum you said
a
business license
is
NOT needed
if
you're selling
on consignment,
but
it is if
you're renting
space
in
a gallery
or thrift shop. Is
that correct?
If correct, please explain.
It's
something
we're struggling
with here and there are definitely
different
schools
of
thought
on
the subject.
If it's
possible
to
have this information before today'
s 5:
00 meeting,
that
would
be great.
If a
phone
call is
better, we'
d love to chat.
Thank you
