Floyd owes more than $5 million in excise taxes, by Baylee Pulliam (Courier-Journal)
Floyd County owes more than $5 million in undistributed excise taxes dating back to 2007, Auditor Scott Clark said Thursday night.
Clark didn't break down how much is owed to the city of New Albany and several Floyd County towns and townships, but said those numbers would be released on or about Wednesday, when he also plans to distribute the funds ...
... The owed excise tax funds — taxes typically paid when purchases are made on a specific good, such as gasoline — were apparently not distributed due to improper record keeping and oversight in the county treasurer's office, according to a 2012 audit by the Indiana State Board of Accounts.
Not without a full body condom, natch.
I wrote about it yesterday: ON THE AVENUES: The same tired "run government like a business" mantra.

Rarely do I find myself without words.
So what happens when the county can't pay? Does the State shut the county down? Haha!
