FISCAL IMPACT: The contract cost is not known and is based on two factors. First, a $9,600 flat fee for sales tax information and technical assistance. Second, a 15% of all revenue received by the County as a result of a contractor' s audit. However, it is anticipated that the consultant will recover substantially more revenues to offset the contract cost. BACKGROUND: The need for more detailed sales tax information is essential to revenue forecasting and economic development planning. Revenue forecasting has been difficult over the years because of substantial changes in revenue. A lack of monthly or annual revenue patterns require a more indepth analysis of sales tax revenue. The State Board of Equalization provides monthly sales tax information is provided to the County on computer diskettes, which is extremely difficult to compile, summarize and print. Moreover, special computer programming and a large capacity personal computer are necessary. The revenue generating potential of various commercial firms is critical to economic and redevelopment planning. This issue has been discussed several times at meetings of the Economic Progress Committee and the Finance Committee.
