Village Condominium Association Directors Notes

 

When:  04/07/04 – 05/20/04

Time: N/A

Where: Various Telephone/email discussions

Subject: Village Assoc. taxes for 2001, 2002 and 2003 not filed

 

Attendance:

  

  Tom Lauzon, Salvador and Babic, Inc. tax accountant

   Will Lewis, MOD Finance & Administration Director

   David Parot, Village Director

   Dana R. Clark, Village Director

   Kurt Ries, Village Director

   Joseph Boylan, Village Property Agent

 

It was discovered in April of 2004, the Village Assoc. 2001, 2002 and 2003 state and federal income taxes had not been filed. MOD had taken over Village property management in 2001.

 

The issue was discussed with Will Lewis of MOD on 04/22/04 and he confirmed MOD has not done any of the Assoc. income tax since they took over in 2001. Will mentioned Tom Lauzon had been doing the taxes for Village and typically sends out an engagement letter to the Assoc. Treasurer in September.

 

Tom Lauzon was engaged on 04/26/04 to prepare the Village income taxes.

 

The issue was discussed with Tom Lauzon Salvador and Babic, Inc. tax accountant on 04/26/04. Tom commented he prepared the 2001 income taxes, however he did not prepare 2003 and 2003 income taxes. He also mentioned he sent an engagement letter to MOD, the Village property agent at the time in September of 2002 and 2003 and did not received response; therefore did not prepare the taxes.

 

Will Lewis emailed Kurt Ries the MOD/Village accounting package, Quickbooks data export on 04/30/04. Kurt passed along the accounting data from 03/01/99 - 12/31/03 to Tom Lauzon on 04/30/04.

 

Tax preparation update was discussed Tom Lauzon 05/14/04, he completed the 2001, 2002 and 2003 Village taxes.

 

Tom is now using Kurt Ries's postal mailing address for all tax correspondence, and will be sending an engagement letter in September along with what information is needed for 2004 taxes.

 

Tom contacted the State and Feds to check Village's filing status:

·         Even though Tom has a record of preparing the 2001 tax statements, looks like the 1031 was never filed

·         Taxes had not been prepared or filed for 2002 or 2003

·         Tom had the State and Feds check under both Villages TIN#

 

Tom prepared the 2001, 2002 and 2003 tax statements with the new Village

TIN# and Village owes $750 ($250/yr X 3). State and Feds will be charging

an interest fee and should be under a $100. The State and Feds will

probably be charging a penalty of $50 to $60 per year, however Tom

mentioned if we plead our case to the State and Feds we will probably not

have to pay the penalty portion.

 

Kurt Ries signed the Tax statements, on 04/19/04.

 

Joe Boylan cut check for $750 and mailed taxes on 04/20/04. Because the Tax preparation for a nonprofit is a simple single form, Joe Boylan is considering doing taxes for all his Assoc. next year.

 

Thanks folks another BV mishap behind us,

 -Kurt

Inc..QBB  and not MS Excel spread sheet export

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns, email

is always best,

      -Kurt

Kurt,

Trying to get hold of you to see exactly what you are looking for in the

export. Do you just want financial statements, ie Balance sheet and Income

statement for each year or do you want detail transaction info. More than

happy to do either.

Anthony, who did the Village 2002 and 2003 taxes?

 

Bolton Valley Property Management has not turned these records over to

Village, and we need to locate these legal records. Can you email me the

Village Quick Book export for 2000, 2001 and  and pls provide me with who

did the Village Tax returns for 2002 and 2003 while Bolton Valley Property

Management was the Village Association's management agent.

 

Thank you,

      -Kurt

Kurt,

 

I just spoke with Tom Lozan regarding the filing of the Village taxes.  He

stated that the last time that he filed the taxes for Village was for 2001.

All of our Village files have been turned over to Joe Boylan and we

therefore do not have any tax information here.  Tom said that he will be

in

contact with you early next week regarding the taxes, as Joe will be away

next week.  If you have any further questions regarding this matter please

give me a call at 434-6843.

 

Regards,

 

 

Anthony
