PURPOSE: To consider adoption of a refund resolution related to three (3) requests for
property tax refund.
BACKGROUND: The Assessor's Office has received three (3) requests from taxpayers for
refund of property taxes paid in prior .fiscal years. 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". North Carolina law allows the Board to approve property tax refunds for
the current and four previous fiscal years.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Approval of these changes will result in a ,net reduction in revenue of
$969.59 to the' County, municipalities, and special districts.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board approve the attached
resolution approving three (3) property tax refund requests in accordance with N.C. General
Statute 105-381.
