Exempt Status Resolution

Letters of Request
PURPOSE: To consider six (6) untimely applications for exemption/exclusion from
ad valorem taxation for the 2007 tax year.
BACKGROUND: North Carolina General Statutes state that applications for exemption must be
filed during the normal listing period, which is during the month of January. NCGS 105-
282.1(x)(5) does allow some discretion. Upon a showing of good cause by the applicant for
failure to make a timely application, an application for exemption or exclusion filed after the
close of the listing period may be approved by the Department of Revenue, the board of
equalization and review, the board of county commissioners, or the governing body of a
municipality, as appropriate. An untimely application for exemption or exclusion approved under
this subdivision applies only to property taxes levied by the county or municipality in the
calendar year in which the untimely application is filed.
Six (6) applicants are applying for homestead exclusion based on NCGS 105-277.1, which
allows exclusion of the greater of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) or fifty percent (50%) of the
appraised value of the residence. Based on the information supplied in the current application
and the above referenced general statutes the applicant can be approved for 2007. The opinion
of the Assessor is that the information provided to date satisfies the good cause requirement of
NCGS 105-282.1(x)(5) and that the six (6) properties should be approved for exclusion.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The reduction in the County's tax base associated with approval of this
exemption application will result in a reduction of 2007 taxes due to the County, municipalities,
and special districts in the amount of $3,511.16. For fiscal year 2007/2008, the total net
reduction in revenues is $3,511.16.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the above listed applications for
2007 exemption be approved.
NORTH CAROLINA
ORANGE COUNTY
EXEMPTTION/EXCLUSION RESOLUTION
Whereas, North Carolina General Statutes 105-282.1 empowers the Board of County
Commissioners to approve applications for exemption after the close of the listing period, and
Whereas, good cause has been shown as evidenced by the information packet provided, and
Whereas, the Assessor has determined that the applicants could have been
approved for 2007 had applications been timely.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS OF ORANGE COUNTY THAT the properties applying for exemption for
2007 are so approved as exempt.
Upon motion duly made and seconded, the foregoing resolution was passed by the following
votes:
Ayes: Commissioners
Noes:
I, Donna Baker, Clerk to the Board of Commissioners for the County of Orange, North
Carolina, DO HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing has been carefully copied from the recorded

said record having been made in the Minute Book of the minutes of said Board, and is
a true copy of so much of said proceedings of said Board as relates in any way to the passage of the
resolution described in said proceedings.
WITNESS my hand and the corporate seal of said County, this day of ,
2007.
Clerk to the Board of Commissioners
