2 <br />ORANGE COUNTY TAX ADMINISTRATION <br />228 S CHURTON STREET, SUITE 200 <br />PO BOX 8181 <br />HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27278 <br />Jo Roberson, Director <br />Telephone (919) 245-2100 Fax (919) 644-3332 <br />MEMORANDUM <br />We are closing in on our "Go Live" date for the Property Information Management <br />System currently scheduled for October 4, 2010. <br />The Parcel Identification Number portion of the software has been written and is in <br />the fmal stage of completion. This portion of the software package had to be <br />created from the ground up through the collaborative efforts of Patriot Systems and <br />staff of the Land Records Division of Tax Administration. Though there has been <br />some trial and tribulation in the creation of the software package, staff is feeling <br />very confident that we have a strong and dynamic product. This new software <br />package will replace the current Legacy product that acts as the official index to <br />the Register of Deeds, as well as, the land ownership record for taxation. <br />The Assess-Pro portion of the Patriot Software is moving along in the <br />configuration stage with anticipation of conversion:to take place for critique by <br />staff prior to our go- live date. Just as with any software conversion involving <br />assessment data there are several aspects that are requiring intensive review. ~ As in <br />any conversion of data there will be some additional scrubs of the data as we move <br />forward but again staff is confident when all is said and done we will emerge with <br />a strong and robust assessment tool. <br />The Billing and Collections software suite that is supported by Intelligent <br />Information Systems on behalf of the North Carolina Property Tax System is also <br />in the final stages of data scrub and conversion. <br />As with all software installation, there will be issues that will require innovative <br />resolution. We are feeling positive that the final end product will allow for <br />continued success in meeting the requirements necessary to be successful in our <br />charge as set out under Orange County ordinance and North Carolina State law. <br />
