[Sqg-program] SQG Surcharges

Hi Jeff!  Our SQG surcharge fee is still being collected by the Tax
Collector's office.  However, government facilities are not required to
obtain an occupational license so we have always billed them directly.
The bills are sent out every February (no reason for this month, just
happened to be when we started billing them) with a cover letter
explaining how much they owe and who to pay it to. We have not
experienced any problems collecting the money.  The Accounting Dept. for
my agency handles the billing and collecting of money for me.  My task
is to ensure the number of facilities being charged and who the bill
should be sent to is correct.

Of course, depending on how large your Assessment role is, billing
directly may be a pain!  Hope this helps and good luck!

PS:  Out of curiosity, why isn't your Tax Collector collecting these
fees for you anymore?  Please let me know if you get the chance.
Thanks!

Greetings,

We have been operating our SQG surcharge through our Tax Collector's
Office.  However, yesterday we were informed that they will nolonger be
collecting this fee for us.

What I'm wondering is:

1. Do you still collect the SQG fees, 

2. Who collects the SQG fee, and

3. If the Tax Collector doesn't collect it, how are you going about
collecting it and what "hoops" did you have to jump through?

Thanks in advance for you help and input.
