§ 8956 Warrant Payment Designation

Key Takeaways

  • •Every warrant (a paper that says money must be paid) must show which assessment (a tax or fee) it comes from.
  • •The warrant must have the name and number of the assessment written on it.
  • •This helps keep track of where the money is coming from and going to.

Example

Imagine your town charges a fee for fixing roads. They send out a paper saying they need to pay a company for the work.

That paper must say something like 'Road Fix Fee #2023' so everyone knows it's from the road fee money.
