§ 62-67. Report required.

(a)

It shall be the duty of all persons issued permits under this division to furnish to the committee, within 30 days after the expiration of such permit, on a form provided by or acceptable to the committee, a detailed report and financial statement showing the total amount raised by the solicitation; an itemization of amounts expended in collecting such funds, including a detailed report of the wages, fees, commissions, emoluments and expenses paid to any person in connection with such solicitation, indicating the name, address, amount paid to and services rendered by each such person; and the specific disposition that will be or has been made, itemized by amount, of the balance of the funds collected by the solicitation. For a continuing permit holder, the report shall be furnished to the committee within 30 days following the close of an actual reporting period to be selected and disclosed on the initial application by the permit holder and shall concern all charitable solicitations for the preceding year. This report shall be available for public inspection at the office of the county tax and license collector at any reasonable time; provided, however, that the committee may extend the time for the filing of the report required by this subsection for an additional period of 30 days upon proof that the filing of the report within the time specified will work unnecessary hardship on the permit holder. The permit holder shall make available for such purpose all books, records, and papers whereby the accuracy of the report required by this subsection may be verified.

(b)

If the total expenses incurred for all activities related to the solicitation, including but not limited to costs for products, facilities, services, compensation, fees and administration, do not exceed ten percent of the gross receipts of the solicitation, such permit holder may, subject to the approval of the committee, make and file a declaration under penalty of perjury to that effect in lieu of furnishing the detailed report provided for under this section. However, in such case the committee shall reserve the right to verify the accuracy of such declaration in accordance with section 62-59(10).
