TO: BOARD OF CUIVIMISSIONERS
FROM: Robert McEwan, Acting Executive Director
DATE: March 23, 1999
SUBJECT: COLLECTION LOSS WRITE-OFF FOR THE QUARTER ENDING MARCH, 1999
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
1. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
ADOPT Resolution No.4462 approving collection loss write-off in the amount of$16,925.00 for the quarter ending March,
1999 as recommended by the Advisory Housing Commission.
II, FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Uncollectable accounts impact on the budget by reducing total rental income. At the end of each quarter,the Housing Authority
takes action to write off those accounts which have been determined to be uncollectable. For the quarter ending March, 1999,a
collection loss write-off in the amount of$16,925.00 is recommended.
Ili. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUNTI)
This collection loss is for the Conventional Program. The requested collection loss write-off reflects a total of 6
accounts that are being recommended for write-off,representing an average of$2,824.83 per account. The following chart
illustrates the collection losses per quarter for the past four quarters:
Conventional Program
03/99 $16,925.40
12/98 $13,048.67
09/98 $12,072.30
06/98 $12,072.30
Prior to submission of an account for write-off,the staff mares every effort,including referral to a collection agency,to
collect money that is owed the Housing Authority.
IV, CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should the Board of Commissioners elect not to adopt Resolution No.4062 these accounts would inflate the total
accounts receivable for the Housing Authority and present a distorted financial picture.
