➢ If a homeowner does land/house improvements, will this change the cost of the <br /> tax on the property? <br /> • Anything that changes the property tax assessment would change their <br /> property tax bill. <br /> PUBLIC COMMENT: <br /> Anne Garabay said she is a lifetime resident of Orange County, and she is an interior <br /> designer. She said her work property and her home are in Orange County. She read an email <br /> that she had written to Commissioner McKee. She said she feels suffocated with Orange <br /> County taxes as it is now. She said she cannot benefit from this new tax at all, as her <br /> commercial business requires that she haul her debris and pay to dump it at the landfill, and <br /> she also hauls her home recycling materials. She said her company has suffered since 2001, <br /> and she has to borrow money to pay taxes now. She loves Hillsborough, but she wants to <br /> take her home and work elsewhere, because she is overtaxed, and she reaps no benefits. She <br /> said every day is a struggle, and she feels that no one is interested in small businesses. She <br /> votes no further taxes on solid waste. <br /> Don O'Leary said, with all due respect, government is like a two year old shouting <br /> "mine, mine, mine." He said the population is no longer ignorant, and residents are not going <br /> to sit by and be taxed. He said he does not need the recycling trucks, as he already has to go <br /> to the dump to take his trash. He said right now it is recyclables, and he questioned how the <br /> Board of County Commissioners can ask residents to pay for a service they do not want. He <br /> said many residents already take their own recyclables to a convenience center, so why would <br /> residents want to pay for a service they are already doing. <br /> Dr. Jon Arvick questioned whether this tax will be deductible on state or federal returns. <br /> He questioned if residents shouldn't be allowed to vote on this if it is a new tax. He asked if <br /> people with only a few materials can opt for monthly pick up. He asked if this tax is really <br /> necessary or if it is just a way to raise revenues. He questioned whether this will really <br /> increase service and whether he will get twice the service for paying twice the price. He asked <br /> if the 61 percent goal is the goal for participation or known waste reduction. <br /> Terri Buckner said she lives in Chapel Hill, in the ETJ for Carrboro. She said her area <br /> of the County does not have access to the Solid Waste Convenience Centers (SWCC). She <br /> said hauling to these centers is very inconvenient for her, though she is still paying for it. She <br /> said she has been to most of these meetings, and she has heard there is support for recycling, <br /> but the controversy is how to pay for it. She said she is in favor of the tax service district since <br /> she lives in the unincorporated southern part of Orange County. She said many of her <br /> neighbors lack understanding about the County services that they receive. She asked the <br /> Board not to commit to any option that will have a negative impact on the recycling rate or <br /> allow more waste to leave the County to go to a landfill in a low wealth county. She asked the <br /> Board to commit to a final solution that will allow the solid waste staff to maintain or exceed the <br /> current recycling rate. <br /> Dave Laudicina said he lives in Bingham Township and he would like to discuss three <br /> points: <br />
