1 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br /> Action Agenda <br /> Item No V -4 <br /> ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br /> Meeting Date: January 4, 1993 <br /> SUBJECT; Changes in Property Tax Listing Requirements <br /> DEPARTMENT County Assessor PUBLIC HEARING YES NO X <br /> ATTACHMENT(S) INFORMATION CONTACT <br /> None Kermit Lloyd, ext 2100 <br /> TELEPHONE NUMBER <br /> Hillsborough 732-8181 <br /> Chapel Hill 968-4501 <br /> Mebane 227-2031 <br /> Durham 688-7331 <br /> PURPOSE: To receive a report on changes to the property tax listing <br /> process in North Carolina. <br /> BACKGROUND: The North Carolina Machinery Act sets out the requirements <br /> for listing of property for taxation during the annual January listing <br /> period. A number of changes to the listing procedures have taken place <br /> in recent years, with the most significant change taking effect on <br /> January 1, 1993 . As of that date, listing of motor vehicles will be <br /> tied to registration with the North Carolina Department of Motor <br /> Vehicles, not to the January listing period. <br /> County staff plan to undertake a public information effort during <br /> the first half of 1993 about how changes in North Carolina property tax <br /> laws will affect individual citizens. In that light, the County <br /> Assessor will present a brief report that highlights changes in the law <br /> and differences between old and new tax listing forms. <br /> RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends that the Board receive the <br /> report for information only. <br />
