(KNZA)--A Horton restaurant is closed, seized by the Kansas Department of Revenue for taxes owned.
According to a release, agents from the Kansas Department of Revenue (KDOR) accompanied by the Brown County Sheriff Department on March 11 executed tax warrants and seized the assets of the El Cazador Mexican Grill located 449 East 15th Street in Horton and Ashlee Munoz for nonpayment of sales and liquor drink tax totaling nearly $70,000.
The release says the types of assets seized include all known bank accounts, on-site cash, business inventory, as well as personal property belonging to the owner.
The business was sealed closed with a public notice posted on the outside.
All seized assets will be sold at public auction and the proceeds will pay for the delinquent taxes.
The release says KDOR's policy and practice is to work with taxpayers in delinquent status to voluntarily enter into repayment agreements. The release adds it is only after those efforts and multiple failed collection attempts that the Department is forced to execute a tax warrant and ultimately asset seizure to ensure compliance with the law.
