The Resolutions Committee is seeking names of retirees. 
If you know of a Tax Collector who is retired or retiring by December 31, 2013 or deceased, please forward those names to one of the committee members.  We plan to honor Tax Collectors retiring July 1 to December 31, 2013 at the NCAAO Fall Conference.

Attached is an important memo from the NC Treasurer's Office concerning the policy change that requires county tax offices to remit 3% of the interest on delinquent motor vehicle tax payments to that office.  As of July 1, 2013, all interest on late registered motor vehicle tax payments will stay with the county.
 
Kind regards,
