TAX COLLECTOR'S REPORT
OF MINIMAL PROPERTY TAX BILLS
Fiscal Year 2017-2018
North Carolina General Statute 105-321(f) is a provision authorizing the governing board
of a taxing unit that collects its own taxes to adopt a resolution foregoing the collection of
bills that do not exceed a specified amount, up to five dollars ($5.00). The Orange
County Board of Commissioners has adopted, by resolution effective July 26, 1995, a
policy change to permit the County Assessor and Tax Collector to waive the billing and
collection of tax notices that do not exceed five dollars ($5.00), and that the tax collector
keep record of such and report the total amount as part of annual settlement.
There were no motor vehicle notices that were less than five dollars ($5.00). The total
number of real estate and personal property notices less than five dollars ($5.00) is
2763. The total amount of taxes waived is $3,192.14.
