IRS wants $1.5 million from TV
 
IRS latest news, posted in the online DUI news.

Quote:
District supervisors voted Thursday to offer $300,000 to settle the dispute, which centered on whether $426 million bonds issued by district between 1993 and 2004 were allowed to be tax-exempt. The IRS asked for $1.5 million to settle the issue. SNIP.....

By the way the link never works for the online paper.

This communication does not appear on the CDD web page “IRS Updates”.

How did the online paper get this information before it was posted????????

As I am not down in the Villages until the end of December to read the Daily Sun and as the online paper only say District Supervisors voted to offer $300,000, which District Supervisors proposed and then voted for this amount? Our elected officials (residential Districts Supervisors) are involved?

$300k to settle a 1.5 million debt. Take it and run.

Our supervisors not involved.
It is The Viilages Center Community Development District that is dealing with this issue
Go to Village Community Development Districts , for all the history.

Do you really think the IRS will settle for $300k when they want $1.5 million - regardless of how much they might want to have this settled and out of the way?

what the IRS will take for a settlement....

So in the end the IRS is admitting it is wrong if they are willing to settle for $1.5 Million. Will be interesting to see why they think that is required and for what. The offer to settle by TV at $300K. Perhaps they can offer the IRS a Villa where the IRS can hold their parties.

I found the comments quite interesting. One outlined the timeline of events and alleged that one individual or entity scooped up many of the tax free bonds at substantial discounts and then sold them back at par when they were redeemed, making a bunch of bucks.

The lawyer fees may end up amounting to more than the IRS eventually obtains in settlement but IMHO the lawyers have earned their pay.

Amount of legal fees that have been expended on the IRS audit of the Village Center Community Development District Recreational Revenue and Utility Revenue Bonds.

Since March 2008 through November 12, 2015, the fees expended are as follows:
Archie Lowry $69,053.33
Lewis Stone $ 2,640.00
Bruce Serchuk $ 41,451.50
Perry Israel $387,068.75
TOTAL $500,213.58

IRS lost the original lawsuit but wants 1.5 million to settle remaining issues.

TV countered with 300K. The DS article says the CDD is still willing to fight as it thinks, it never did anything wrong. Will the IRS settle for 300K?

Stay tuned...............it's not over until the fat lady sings but she is warming up her vocal cords.

I wonder if Lauren Richie has anything to say about the IRS losing it's main case.
