RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2008-064 authorizing a refund of Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) of
$3,601 and of Carlsbad Tourism Business Improvement District Assessment (CTBID) of $380
to KB Carlsbad Investors, LLC.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
KB Carlsbad Investors, LLC overpaid their TOT and CTBID assessment in 2007. They
erroneously submitted payments for non-transients, guest who stayed over thirty days.
The Finance Department has verified the amounts of the overpayments and ensuring
compliance with all other TOT and CTBID policies.
Section 5.04.130 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code requires Council approval of any refund in
excess of $500. Therefore, staff is recommending approval of a refund to KB Carlsbad
Investors, LLC of $3,981.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The payment will result in $3,981 in refunds. There is no true fiscal impact, as the payments
were in error.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15378, this
does not constitute a "project" within the meaning of CEQA and, therefore, does not require an
environmental review.
EXHIBITS:
1. Resolution No. 2008-064 authorizing a refund of Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) and
Carlsbad Tourism Business Improvement District Assessment to KB Carlsbad Investors,
LLC.
