PURPOSE: To consider approving changes made in property values after the 2008 Board of
Equalization and Review has adjourned.
BACKGROUND: North Carolina General Statute 105-325(a) provides in part that "After the
board of equalization and review has finished its work and the changes it affected or ordered
have been entered on the abstracts and tax records as required by G.S. 105-323, the board of
county commissioners shall have the authority to make changes on the abstract and tax
records." This section further enumerates the circumstances under which a board of
commissioners can make valuation changes.
The Orange County Board of Equalization and Review adjourned on June 11, 2008. Since that
time staff has identified the need to change values as indicated on the attached spreadsheet in
accordance with statutory provisions.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Approval of these changes will decrease assessed value by $4,760 for
2008. This will result in a net decrease in revenue of $20.88 to the County, municipalities, and
special districts. For FY 2008/2009, the total net reduction in revenues is $65,483.72.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board adopt the resolution
approving the attached value changes.
