Mapping Department created this tract in error in 1989. Title X Corporation was billed from 1990 through 1996. The 1994, 1995, and 1996 bills were unpaid and bills were released. North Carolina General Statutes allow for a 5 year maximum refund. Thus, this is a request for a refund for the two preceding years the bills were paid (1992 and 1993) .
