Dear Mayor Mohan, City Council Members and Budget Manager Leung,
Due to the CDTFA Audit, the city has stopped paying Apple (BAZ INDUSTRIES) it’s 35% sales tax
portion from the start of the 2023 sales tax period. This amount adds up to MILLIONS of dollars by
now. Months ago, when this payment to Apple (BAZ) was stopped, staff said that they were setting
aside Apple’s share (35%) in a fund until the CDTFA Audit was resolved.
Since that statement, the Treasurer’s Reports do not reflect the addition/existence of this new fund
that by now holds millions of dollars!
Q1: Where is this Apple money being stored i.e. what fund is it being kept in?
Q2: Why is this not showing up on the Monthly Treasurer’s Reports?
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Peggy Griffin
