PURPOSE: To consider adoption of a refund resolution related to one request for property tax
refunds.
BACKGROUND: General Statute 105-381(b), "Action of Governing Body" provides that "Upon
receiving a taxpayer's written statement of defense and request for release or refund, the
governing body of the Taxing Unit shall within 90 days after receipt of such a request determine
whether the taxpayer has a valid defense to the tax imposed or any part thereof and shall either
release or refund that portion of the amount that is determined to be in excess of the correct
liability or notify the taxpayer in writing that no release or refund will be made".
For classified motor vehicles, GS 105-330(B) allows for a full or partial refund when a tax has
been paid and pending appeal is decided in the owner's favor.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Approving these refund requests will result in refunds amounting to
$12.95,
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board approve the attached
resolution approving one property tax refund request in accordance with N.C. General Statute
105-381, and/or G.S. 105-330.2(B).
