DISCUSSION & POSSIBLE ACTION REGARDING WELLS FARGO FINANCIAL <br /> LEASING REQUEST FOR REFUND FOR PERSONAL PROPERTY— Pelland stated <br /> that this is a request from Wells Fargo Financial Leasing on 2014 Personal property tax <br /> for Catholic Health Initiative in Grand Island. The schedule was received and they ran <br /> the first year depreciation on it. On April 30, 2014 the treasurer sent out a tax statement <br /> and the taxes were paid in February 2015. She received a letter from Well Fargo for <br /> CHI stating that due to a clerical error they were filing an amended form and are <br /> requesting a refund. They did not have to file an amended tax return with the IRS. This <br /> is a lease purchase and they report all of the leased equipment. She read the letter into <br /> the record from Wells Fargo. <br /> The correction would be from $8,114,729.00 with a tax bill of$183,953.85 that was paid <br /> and the amended return is $354,448.00 with $8,035.04 taxes that would be a refund of <br /> $175,918.80. With the information she does not see how they cannot file an amended <br /> return. The tax correction cannot go through the board today because the county <br /> treasurer will have to notify all of the political subdivision of the amount that has to be <br /> returned and they will have 30 days to file a hardship. <br /> Quandt made a motion and Richardson seconded to approve the request for the refund <br /> for Wells Fargo for CHI.
