BACKGROUND: North Carolina General Statute 105-325(a) provides in part that "After the board of equalization and review has finished its work and the changes it affected or ordered have been entered on the abstracts and tax records as required by G.S. 105-323, the board of county commissioners shall have the authority to make changes on the abstract and tax records." This section further enumerates the circumstances under which a board of commissioners can make valuation changes. The Orange County Board of Equalization and Review adjourned on June 20, 2002. Since that time, staff has identified the need to change values as indicated on the attached spreadsheet, in accordance with the statutory provisions. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Approval of this change will decrease assessed value by $54,494 for 2002. This will result in a net decrease in revenue of $480.68 to the County, municipalities, and special districts. RECOMMENDATION(S): The County Manager recommends that the Board adopt the resolution approving the attached value change. 2 NORTH CAROLINA ORANGE COUNTY VALUE CHANGE RESOLUTION Whereas, North Carolina General Statutes 105-325 empowers the Board of County Commissioners to order changes to tax records after the Board of Equalization and Review has adjourned; and Whereas, the Board of Equalization and Review has adjourned for the year 2002.
