The Accounts write-off panel is an annual, public meeting organized by the Department of Revenue. For accounting purposes, the City reviews old debts annually and removes them from financial statements.
Once written off, the debts are no longer considered receivables for accounting purposes. However, they remain in City systems, and efforts to collect the debt continue.
