The City Manager shall, after a return is filed, examine the same and make any investigation or examination of the records and accounts of the person making the return deemed necessary for determining its correctness. The lodging tax computed on the basis of such examination shall be the lodging tax due. If the lodging tax due is found to be greater than paid, such excess shall be paid to the city within ten days after receipt of a notice thereof given either personally or sent by registered mail to the address shown on the return. If the lodging tax paid is greater than the lodging tax found to be due, the excess shall be refunded to the person who paid the lodging tax to the city within ten days after determination of such refund.
