Subject: Consideration of Response from Treasurer-Tax Collector Barbara Ringen to constituent's questions about property tax bills due on 04/10/20 and whether the due date can be extended due to the COVID-19 pandemic

Executive Summary: (include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):

(a) This item is being submitted as an "extra" agenda item. The justification for this request to consider an item not on the posted agenda is as follows:

This item came to my attention subsequent to the posting of the current agenda and there is a need to take action before the next agenda.

(b) During your Regular Board meeting this date (04/07/20), Agenda item 6.1, Public Input, members of the public asked time sensitive questions regarding property tax bills due on 04/10/20 and whether the due date for such payments would be extended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Given the financial challenges many citizens are facing during this crisis and the impending due date set to occur before your Board's next regular meeting, an extra agenda item will enable Treasurer-Tax Collector to respond to constituent's questions.
