4110. GENERAL APPLICATION
The tax collector must account to the auditor, not less than once every 12 months and on dates approved by the auditor, for all collections during the preceding reporting period. On the same day, the tax collector must file a statement, under oath, with the auditor showing that all money collected has been paid (deposited) as required by law (Rev. & Tax. Code §4108). This accounting is not the "itemized account of transactions" described in M-4111.

The account includes the amount collected for each fund or district (Rev. & Tax. Code §4108).
4112. REQUIRED AUDITS
The records and accounts of redemptions must be audited at least once every three years (Rev. & Tax. Code §4108.5).
