3 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> HILLSBOROUGH <br /> N-ORTH CAROLINA <br /> February 6, 1995 c �ta.aalwd 175-9 <br /> Mr. Robert C. Smith, Manager <br /> Alamance County <br /> 124 West Elm Street <br /> Graham, NC 27253 <br /> Dear Robert: <br /> As the process of property development along the Orange- <br /> Alamance line gathers momentum, I believe that it might be <br /> wise for Orange and Alamance Counties to review our <br /> understandings of where the county line is situated. It <br /> seems that over the years, informal agreements have been <br /> reached between the two Assessors concerning the ad valorem <br /> taxation of various parcels in proximity to the traditionally <br /> recognized county line. I believe that we may now need to <br /> reach a more formal agreement as to the location of the <br /> boundary. <br /> Several years ago, Orange and.Chatham Countieaz had <br /> local legislation adopted by the- General Assembly which <br /> provided a relatvely! low-cost process for officially <br /> establishing th in r a y be_ween;'the two=:couatiees. <br /> Relying on orthorotasF r.ath than `the tine crsnsuming <br /> v e r <br /> and expens ivy prss:w of surt€ig' the 'entire` bounty <br /> line, staffs i th. appropriate <br /> property own""": �y aried_fat,. a. statutor�.ly .permitted <br /> resolution t ti Iocta� p ;fie ,bounciar be> een. the two <br /> counties. I iggest teet in the near ` ztn=e to <br /> discuss the-,.a dvantagclsadvantages of various options <br /> for establish=ing " unds =befaeen Orange <br /> and Alamance Counties. <br /> I will call you within a week or so to follow up on this <br /> letter, and to work out a time for us and appropriate staff <br /> members to meet on this topic. <br /> Si Ze <br /> , <br /> ohn M.
