Freeman, Tax Administrator Spreadsheet Requests for Exemption/Exclusion PURPOSE: To consider nine untimely applications for exemption/exclusion from ad valorem taxation for nine bills for the 2020 tax year. BACKGROUND: North Carolina General Statutes (NCGS) typically require applications for exemption to be filed during the listing period, which is usually during the month of January. Applications for Elderly/Disabled Exclusion, Circuit Breaker Tax Deferment and Disabled Veteran Exclusion should be filed by June 1st of the tax year for which the benefit is requested. NCGS 105-282.1(a1) 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 provision applies only to property taxes levied by the county or municipality in the calendar year in which the untimely application is filed. Six of the applicants are applying for homestead exclusion based on NCGS 105-277.1, which allows exclusion of the greater of $25,000 or 50% of the appraised value of the residence. Two of the applicants are applying for exclusion based on NCGS 105-277.1 C, which allows for an exclusion of$45,000 for an honorably discharged Disabled American Veteran. One applicant is applying for exemption based on NCGS 105-278.6 (8), which allows an exemption of a nonprofit organization providing housing for individuals or families with low or moderate incomes. Including these nine applications, the Board will have considered a total of forty-five untimely applications for exemption of 2020 taxes since the 2020 Board of Equalization and Review 2 adjourned on June 25, 2020. Taxpayers may submit an untimely application for exemption of 2020 taxes to the Board of Commissioners through December 31, 2020. Based on the information supplied in the application and based on the above-referenced General Statutes, the application may be approved by the Board of County Commissioners. NCGS 105- 282.1(a1) permits approval of such application if good cause is demonstrated by the taxpayer. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The reduction in the County's tax base associated with approval of the exemption application will result in a reduction of FY 2020/2021 taxes due to the County, municipalities, and special districts in the amount of$3,618.03. SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: There is no Orange County Social Justice Goal impact associated with this item. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: There is no Orange County Environmental Responsibility Goal impact associated with this item. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board approve the attached resolution for the above-listed applications for FY 2020/2021 exemption. 3 RES-2020-077 NORTH CAROLINA ORANGE COUNTY EXEMPTION/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 Tax Administrator has determined that the applicants could have been approved for 2020 had applications been timely.
