Committee recommends writing off two uncollectible SDC balances

Merrill Personal Finance Committee · August 25, 2026

Summary

Staff reported that two SDC balances were deemed uncollectible by the state; the committee voted to forward a recommendation to the city council to write off those two accounts per the SDC returns.

The committee reviewed SDC return collections and a staff summary that identified two uncollectible balances. Staff noted the state had determined certain accounts uncollectible, limiting the city's direct collection options.

"I'll make a motion to forward the council the write off of the 2 uncollectible debts per SDC," Chair said. The motion was seconded, recommended to council and carried on voice vote. Staff observed that pursuing private collection could be an option but might be a significant expense; the state determination constrains the city's remedies in some cases.
