(a) The provisions of this article shall apply to any taxpayer who, on or after October 1, 2020, and on or before December 17, 2020, files an application for tax penalty amnesty and complies with the following conditions:
1. Substantially complies with the application procedure created and administered by the Director of Finance;
2. Pays in full all taxes and interest due before December 17, 2020, relating to the application submitted to the Office of Finance; and
3. Pays all costs and fees incurred with respect to the collection of any delinquent taxes at the time the application is submitted to the Office of Finance.
(b) For any taxes subject to amnesty under this program, the Director of Finance may enter into an installment payment agreement, as provided for in Section 21.18 of Article I of this Chapter, in lieu of the complete payment required under Subdivision 2. of Subsection (a) of this section. Failure of the taxpayer to fully comply with the terms of the installment payment agreement shall render the waiver of any penalty applicable thereto null and void, unless the Director of Finance determines that the failure was due to reasonable cause and the taxpayer substantially complied with the terms of the installment agreement. An installment agreement under this article shall have a maximum term of six months, by which date all taxes, interests, fees, and costs must be fully paid, unless the taxpayer has already entered into an installment agreement with the Office of Finance, in which case the Director may use her discretion to alter any existing installment agreement to reflect the intent of the Tax Penalty Amnesty Ordinance of 2020.
