RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation Concerning a Resolution Authorizing the Write-Off of a Bad Debt at the Pensacola Bay Center - Amy Lovoy, Management and Budget Services Department Director
That the Board adopt the Resolution designating a delinquent account as an uncollectible bad debt and authorizing the Clerk of the Circuit Court to write-off the County's books a receivable due from MW Pensacola Events, LLC, for services provided by the Pensacola Bay Center, in the amount of $5,763.83.
BACKGROUND:
In 2011 MW Pensacola Events, LLC contracted to hold a Memorial Day event at the Pensacola Bay Center. Certain balances totaling $5,763.83 remain unpaid from this event. In order to write-off this outstanding amount the Board must approve a resolution authorizing the Clerk's Office to write-off the amount as bad debt.
This action is only for the purpose of providing authorization to the Clerk's Office for writing off the receivable from the County's books. It does not preclude further efforts in collecting the debt including denial of future services at the Bay Center until the balance is paid.
BUDGETARY IMPACT:
A bad debt expense in the amount of $5,763.83 will appear on the Civic Center Fund (409) income/expense ledger for FY2014.
