The Kansas Department of Revenue (KDOR) announced in a press release that tax agents and deputies from the Johnson County Sheriff’s Department executed tax warrants at 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 13, at American Fusion Wheels located at 12310 West 62nd Terrace. The business specializes in offering customers upgrades and repairs to their vehicles in the Kansas City metro area.
KDOR reports that its agents and other law enforcement personnel seized all known bank accounts, cash on site, business inventory and personal property belonging to the owner. KDOR then sealed the business closed and posted a notice on the exterior with all seized assets to be sold at a later public auction to pay off the taxes owed.
“KDOR’s policy and practice is to work with taxpayers in delinquent status to voluntarily enter into repayment agreements. It is only after these efforts and multiple failed collection attempts that the Department is forced to execute a tax warrant, utilizing such actions as bank levies, till taps, and ultimately asset seizure to ensure compliance with the law.
KDOR’s responsibility to recover delinquent taxes not only ensures fairness for individuals and business owners who do pay their taxes but also ensures that money is lawfully collected to fund state and local programs on which Kansans depend. These programs include education, highways, public safety, and human services.”
