County Fails To Distribute $400,000
Item: More tax relief not paid: County failed to distribute $400,000 due over 4 years/Alecia Warren, Coeur d'Alene Press
More Info: The Kootenai County Auditor's Office revealed this week another failure with distributing tax revenue to county taxing districts, this time holding back nearly half a million dollars over four years. "We should have sent it out sooner. For that, I take responsibility," said County Clerk Dan English. "The truth is, it fell through the cracks." On account of an employee's oversight, English said, the county failed to distribute a total of $400,000 in yield and deferred taxes to 20 taxing districts from 2006 through 2009.
