This budget reduction was put in place on March 8, 2013 for current year operations.Therefore, our true need did not arise until after the deadline. I Upon analyzing all aspects our Orange County Head Start and Early Head Start budget we found that we could not reduce costs without reducing services to the children of Orange County.This has led to our decision to submit an Application for Exemption. If granted we will be able to use these funds to I increase teacher hours and restore funding for transportation for families. Thank you for consideration of Property Tax Exemption for 2013 with a late application. We assure you a timely filing in 2014.

Box 8181 Hillsborough, NC 27278 Re: Pickard Meadow Farm LLC 2013 Application for Property Tax Exemption or Exclusion Dear Ms. Wright: On behalf of the above referenced taxpayer, we are writing in response to a letter dated August 30, 2013. The letter requests an explanation of good cause for the untimely application for property tax exemption and exclusion for the 2013 tax year. The client filed an extension of time to file the 2013 property tax listing by the January 31" deadline and appropriately filed the property tax listing by the extended due date. However we were unaware that an application for exemption or exclusion needed to be completed with the property tax listing in order to qualify for exemption on the solar energy electric system. The property listing form instructions did not mention the application and we were unable to find any information regarding the proper filing requirements for solar energy systems on the North Carolina Department of Revenue property tax information website. In addition, we even inquired with our contacts with another county jurisdiction regarding the proper way to list the solar energy electric system and our contact was unaware of the requirement for the application. Since we filed the application for exemption or exclusion as soon as it was discovered that it was required, we respectfully request that the application for exemption be approved. Thank you for your time and consideration to this matter. Sincerely, CYM4U?Mh1r Heather L. Dean, CPA i _CPAMEEOCA 10 Orange County Tax Office FILED P.O.
