  • Each operator shall, on or before the last day of the month following the close of each calendar quarter, or at the close of any shorter reporting period which may be established by the tax administrator, submit a return to the tax administrator, on prescribed forms containing, the following information: (1) the total rents charged and received, (2) the total amount of exemptions, and (3) the amount of TOT collected for transient occupancies. In addition, at the time the return is filed, the full amount of the TOT collected shall be remitted to the tax administrator. The tax administrator may establish shorter reporting periods or additional information for any certificate holder if deemed necessary to ensure collection of the TOT. Returns and payments are due immediately upon cessation of business for any reason. All taxes collected by operators pursuant to this chapter shall be considered public monies at the time of collection and the separate property of the county and shall be held in trust for the account of the county until payment thereof is made to the tax administrator.
