SUBJECT: Motor Vehicle Prooertv Tax Release/Refunds DEPARTMENT: RevenuelTax Collector PUBLIC HEARING: (Y/N) No ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: Jo Roberson, Revenue Director, 919-245-2727 Resolution Release/Refund Data Spreadsheet PURPOSE: To consider adoption of a refund resolution related to 50 requests for motor vehicle property tax releases or refunds, BACKGROUND: GS 105-381(a)(1) allows a taxpayer to assert a valid defense to the enforcement of the collection of a tax assessed upon his/her property under three sets of circumstances: (a) "a tax imposed through clerical error", for example when there is an actual error in mathematical calculation; (b) "an illegal tax", such as when the vehicle should have been billed in another county, an incorrect name was used, or an incorrect rate code (the wrong combination of applicable county, municipal, fire district, etc. tax rates) was used; (c) "a tax levied for an illegal purpose", which would involve charging a tax which was later deemed to be impermissible under state law. GS 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". For classified motor vehicles, GS 105-330.2(b) allows for a full or partial refund when a tax has been paid and a pending appeal for valuation reduction due to excessive mileage, vehicle damage, etc, is decided in the owner's favor. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Approval of these release/refund requests will result in a net reduction of $2,712.22 to Orange County, the towns, and school and fire districts. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board approve the attached resolution approving 50 motor vehicle property tax release/refunds requested in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes. NORTH CAROLINA ORANGE COUNTY REFUND RESOLUTION (Approval) Whereas, North Carolina General Statutes 105-381 and/or .3302(B) allows for the refund of taxes when the Board of County Commissioners determines that a taxpayer applying for the refund has a valid defense to the tax imposed; and Whereas, the properties listed in each of the attached "Request for Property Tax Refunds" has been taxed; and Whereas, as to each of the properties listed in the Request for Property Tax Refunds, the taxpayer has timely applied in writing for a refund of the tax imposed and has presented a valid defense to the tax imposed as indicated on the Request for Property Tax Refunds. NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF ORANGE COUNTY THAT the recommended property tax refund(s) are approved. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the foregoing resolution was passed by the following votes: Ayes: Conunissioners Noes: I, Donna Baker, Clerk to the Board of Coaunissioners for the County of Orange, North Carolina, DO HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing has been carefully copied from the recorded minutes of the Board of Commissioners for said County at a regular meeting of said Board held on said record having been made in the Minute Book of the minutes of said Board, and is a hue 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.
