PURPOSE: To appoint members to the Special Board of Equalization and Review (E&R
Board)
BACKGROUND: Pursuant to N.C.G.S. 105-322, a Special Board of Equalization and Review
was created by a Resolution adopted by the Orange County Board of Commissioners on
February 5, 2002. The Clerk's office has advertised and recruitment has also been done by the
Tax Assessor's office, with nine applications received. The Orange County Special Board of
Equalization and Review shall consist of three regular members plus alternate members, each
to serve for a term in accordance with G.S. 105-322.
Applications have been received from Pam Davis, Reg Morgan, Jane Sparks, Margaret Brown,
Bill Crowther, Ruby Tilley, Tim Kepley, Tom Heffner and Ming Tran for appointment as either
regular or alternate members on the Special Board of Equalization and Review. Tom Heffner,
who has chaired the E&R Board for a number of years, has specifically requested appointment
as an alternate this year, not as a regular member.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Each member will be paid $75.00 for each meeting they attend, and
the chair will be paid $100.00 for each meeting attended. The funds are included in the Tax
Assessor's budget.
RECOMMENDATION(S): Appoint three regular members, and the remaining applicants as
alternate members, on the Special Board of Equalization and Review, all with term ending dates
of December 31, 2002; and appoint one regular member to be the Chair of the Special Board of
Equalization and Review.
