Meeting Date Prepared by Mayor’s review Council review 09/21/20 VC 5.C. 25 26   City of Tukwila Allan Ekberg, Mayor INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM    TO: Finance Committee FROM: Vicky Carlsen, Finance Director BY: Cindy Wilkins – Fiscal Specialist CC: Mayor Ekberg DATE: September 8, 2020 SUBJECT: 2020 Reporting of Abandoned Property to the Washington State Department of Revenue Unclaimed Property Section ISSUE Annual write-off of outstanding and unredeemed accounts payable and payroll claims. BACKGROUND Each year by November 1st, the City of Tukwila reports abandoned or unclaimed property that is owed either to individuals or business vendors to the Washington State Department of Revenue Unclaimed Property Section and removes these items from the accounting records. All local governments are required to report unclaimed property except unclaimed restitution. Normal restitution is then reported each year by the County Treasurer to the State Treasurer. Current Finance Department policy dictates that all abandoned or unclaimed property be reported annually to the Washington State Department of Revenue Unclaimed Property Section through the Council approved resolution process. DISCUSSION For the 2020 unclaimed property report year, reporting of abandoned or unclaimed property totals $16,678.88 comprised of General Fund Accounts, payable Claims checks and Payroll checks. To the extent possible, those individuals and businesses with unclaimed accounts payable claims and payroll checks have been notified by the City through “good faith” effort of being mailed due diligence letters. These individuals and businesses have either not responded to the due diligence notifications and/or cannot be located in order to claim their property. One of the largest contributors to Unclaimed Property are juror reimbursement checks. To help reduce unclaimed property, a member from Finance is reimbursing jurors from a petty cash fund in the courtroom prior to the start of the trial. Checks are no longer being issued for reimbursement. RECOMMENDATION The Council is being asked to approve the Resolution declaring the cancellation of unclaimed General Fund accounts payable claims and consider these items on the Consent Agenda at the September 21, 2020 Regular Council Meeting.
