(a) Issuance. If the collection of any tax due from a taxpayer, whether or not previously assessed, will be jeopardized by delay, the Town Manager may declare the taxable period immediately terminated, require the Finance Director to determine the tax and issue a jeopardy assessment and demand payment. Any tax so assessed shall be due and payable immediately.

(b) Security for payment. Enforcement of a jeopardy assessment and demand for payment may be stayed if the taxpayer gives security for payment which is satisfactory to the Town Manager.

(c) Dispute of jeopardy assessment. If, in the opinion of the taxpayer, the jeopardy assessment is not for the correct amount of the tax due, the taxpayer shall pay the tax due as assessed and submit a claim for refund to the Town. (Ord. 1263, 2007)
