§ 58-4.1006. Audit.  


Latest version.
  • The county, on an annual basis, shall be furnished a statement within ninety days of the close of the calendar year, certified by an officer of the operator reflecting the total amounts of gross revenues and all payments and computations of the franchise fee for the previous calendar year. The county shall have the right to conduct an audit of the operator's books and records reasonably related to the calculation of gross revenues and franchise fees for the audit period not more frequently than once every three years, upon sixty days' prior written notice to the operator, and shall provide the county or its designee copies of such books and records, subject to the terms of a mutually satisfactory confidentiality agreement, substantially identical to the form of an agreement to be appended to the operator's franchise agreement. If such audit indicates a franchise fee underpayment of at least five percent, and such finding is not contested, the operator shall assume all reasonable costs of such an audit. If there is any underpayment, the operator shall remit to the county all applicable franchise fees.
