Such taxes as <br />the department finds to be uncollectible shall be entered in a <br />special record and be deleted from the other books kept by the <br />department, and the department shall thereupon be released from any <br />further accountability for their collection; provided, that no <br />account shall be so deleted until it shall have been delinquent for <br />at least two years. Any items so deleted may be transferred back to <br />the delinquent tax roll if the department finds that the alleged <br />facts as previously presented to it were not true, or that such <br />items are in fact collectible. <br />(1981,Ord.
