Nearly $90,000 owed to 127 people or businesses remains unclaimed and could soon go away, Santa Clara County’s Department of Tax and Collections announced Wednesday.
The department released a list of those owed some amount of the $89,017, advising them to submit a claim online or by mail ahead of a Nov. 11 deadline. After that deadline, the department said it would transfer any remaining money to County funds.
The money comes from “overpayments, duplicate payments, adjustment of charges, payment to victims who cannot be located, victims who refused the monies, or are out of business and a variety of other reasons,” according to the department.
All those funds have now been in the County’s general collections fund for over three years.
