Fayette- ville Avenue, Dunn, North Carolina, be relieved of the l0% penalty for late filing of the 1975 property tax listing. The listing is enclosed as of this date. The cause for late filing is that I have recently moved to Harnett County and I was not familiar with the filing deadline. I was in error...trust the Board...will accept this explanation... It was determined that the Tax Supervisor would be contacted by the manager before any action could be taken regarding the request. G. C. BURGESS PROPERTY ADJOURN Regarding the G. C.
