Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 21, November 4, 2024

Section 19:31O-1.10 - Reporting requirements

(a) During the term of the project approval agreement, on the 15th business day of the quarter, the business that is party to the agreement shall furnish to the Chief Executive Officer a certified report of all purchases of eligible property made in the preceding quarter on which the sales tax exemption was claimed, including the date of purchase, an itemized description, amount of purchase, name of project participant that purchased the item, and name of vendor. "Certified" for purposes of this section means that the veracity of the report is attested by the business, and does not entail a certification by an outside accountant based upon an audit of any type.

1. A business having difficulty obtaining the itemized information from subcontractors on third-party construction contracts may file an estimated allocation of the costs of eligible property incurred under the construction contract, pursuant to the percentage determined by the Board, which shall be consistent with industry standards, and made available to the public upon its approval by the Board. Such estimated allocation shall be included in the certified report of all purchases of eligible property. The election of alternative reporting shall be set forth in the project approval agreement, and once selected, may not be revoked or the percentage changed, pursuant to the terms of that agreement.

(b) During the term of the project approval agreement, 30 days prior to each anniversary of the commencement date of the agreement, the business shall furnish to the Chief Executive Officer a certified report in a format as may be determined by the Chief Executive Officer which shall contain the following information:

1. A certification indicating whether or not the business is aware of any condition, event or act which constitutes a default or an event of default of the agreement, or which would constitute an event of default with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, under the project approval agreement;

2. A written description of the present status of construction and use of the project and a description of any anticipated material change in the use of the project or in the number of employees located or to be located at the project;

3. For the applicable reporting year, the total amount of the sales tax that would have been paid on purchases of eligible property by or on behalf of the business but for the fact that the sales tax exemption provided was claimed and aggregated as a total from the commencement date; and

4. Any other reports required under the project approval agreement, such as the information provided to the Chief Executive Officer demonstrating the number of retained full-time jobs maintained by the business.
