It is important to clarify the order in which a payment will be applied in any case where all <br /> outstanding taxes and fees are not paid. In all cases the real property interest, penalty and <br /> taxes will take precedence. The purpose of this measure is to amend Section 19-23 to clarify <br /> application of payments to outstanding taxes in the case of properties which are subject to <br /> special taxes in addition to ad valorem real property tax. Should any payments be less than <br /> the full amount due, application to special taxes will be secondary to real property interest, <br /> penalties and taxes. <br /> If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call Wesley Takai, Real Property Tax <br /> Administrator. <br /> r~~~ <br /> William Taka a <br /> Director of Finance <br /> APPROVED: <br /> C-~~~ " U <br /> <br /> ~ Harry Kim Comm.
