SUMMARY:
During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, Roger Scott Tennis Center which is operated by Gulf Coast Tennis Group, LLC, was given an emergency directive to close the center during the pandemic for a period of time. The required closure period was from April 6, 2020 through April 30, 2020. Gulf Coast Tennis Group, LLC, participated in the City’s Lease Deferral Program, and April, May and June 2020 payments totaling $31,250 were deferred. After timely repayment of $20,833.33 in deferred rent, Gulf Coast Tennis Group, LLC, requested that the remaining balance of $10,416.67 be forgiven. This amount is a proration equal to one month of the annual $125,000 payment due to the City at that time.
The City’s Financial Planning and Administration Policy provides that all non-utility account receivable in amounts in excess of $1,000, and in which a lien has not been filed be submitted to City Council for approval before being written off. The write-off of this uncollectible account is for account purposes only and will not impact the fiscal year 2022 revenues or expenditures of the City of Pensacola.
