Mr. Earl Jones, Tax Collector, presented the report for his office. He also presented the following for reproduction and distribution if acceptable by the Board: STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA COUNTY OF HARNETT OFFICE OF THE TAX COLLECTOR LILLINGTON, N. C. The Office of Tax Collector, in point of history, is one of the oldest positions of governmental responsibility that remains in existence in modern times. We are mindful of this as we read the Biblical accounts of tax collectors and their activities. The Tax Collector is charged with the responsibility to employ all lawful means for the collection of taxes; he is required to keep adequate records and to render an accounting of all monies received by his office. The North Carolina Machinery Act of 1939 supports this official in the performance of the duties of his office. This Act empowers the Tax Coll- ector with authority to garnishee, enabling him to attach a portion of the salary or the bank account of a delinquent taxpayer for payment of taxes. He may attach personal property, including motor vehicles, tele- visions, boats or any item of value to offer for public sale to apply to the delinquent account of a taxpayer. In the real estate category, the Tax Collector must report all activities of his office to the local govern- ing body. This report is given on a regular basis and sets forth the action taken to administer the duties of the office. The necessity for the collection of the tax dollar is best realized when we note how it is spent. The revenue from taxes provides personnel and maintains facilities for: Law Enforcement, Register of Deeds, Tax Departments, Auditor's Office, Coroner, Agricultural Extension Service, Health Department, Dog Warden, Veterans Service Office, Civil Defense, Industrial Development, Social Services, Board of Elections and Public Schools. In addition, the tax dollar provides for the maintenance of buildings and grounds of these departments. The Harnett County Tax Collector also acts as the receiver of funds for the county from sources other than taxes. From 22 to 3 million dollars is processed through the office in Harnett County, annually. There- fore, the intricate details of the function of the Office of Tax Collector is a great responsibility. Although, by the very nature of his work the Tax Collector is not the most beloved of government officials, he nonetheless serves in a most vital office of local government. It is through and by his efforts that local government is able to execute the will of the people in rendering the services which the taxpayers require and deserve. 471. Minutes of Regular Meeting of February 1, 1971 continued The Office of Tax Collector in Harnett County is one of the major appointive offices. The Tax Collector is appointed by the Board of Com- missioners for a one -year term and serves at the will and pleasure of the Board. Should the Tax Collector be derelict in his duties, the governing body may remove him from office. W. Earl Jones Tax Collector ACTION: Commissioner McLamb moved that the foregoing be accepted for reproduction and distribution, Commissioner Brown seconded the move and it carried unanimously. MENTAL HEALTH DIRECTOR RALPH MC COIG Item 10. Ralph McCoig, Director Mental Health Department, came before the Board in behalf of the Mental Heal Authority. He reported that because of over estimation of anticipated fees and unmatchable funds determined as matchable erroneously, that his department could not continue to function present rate without incurring a deficit for the fiscal year of 1970 -71, in the estimated amount of $39,000.00 RECESS RECONVENED FIRE CODES Commissioner McLamb recommended that this information be taken under consideration. The Board requested a report from the Mental Health Department to be sub- mitted periodically. The meeting recessed for lunch at 12:00 noon. The meeting was celled to order again after lunchat 1:30 P. M. Item 11. County attorney, Edward H. McCormick informed the Board that he had no recommendations relative to the adoption of fire codes for the County. He further reported that the committee was still working in an effort to acquire an adequate set of codes that could be common and acceptable for the entire county. MEDICAL EXAMINER SYSTEM Item 12. The Chairman brought to the attention of the Board the subject of Medical Examiner Sustem for Harnett County. Attorney McCormick read G.S. 130 -107 of 1967 Legislature. It appears therefore, that the aforementioned system is mandatory and that all counties will come under it eventually. The discussion was tabled. AMENDMENT TO E. C. REG. HSG. AUTHORITY Chairman Brock presented an amendment to the laws governing the Eastern Carolina Regional Housing Authority to the Board. The Board chose to take no action regarding the matter. 1¢ SALES TAX The Board discussed the 1¢ sales tax matter with Attorney Gerald Arnold. EAGLE STORES, INC. ROAD PETITIONS Item 13. Atty Bryan, Dunn, appeared before the Board in behalf of Eagles, Inc. asking for some measure of relief in paying the back taxes as recorded in the minutes of the foregoing regular meeting. The Board agreed to take the matter under consideration, discuss it with Mr. Allen, Tax Supervisor and notify Attorney Bryan of the ultimate results of the discussion. The Board agreed to return to Overhills, Inc., their road petition with a letter of explanation. The Following road petitions were approved by motion of Commissioner Ray, a second by Commissioner Brown and a unanimous vote: #1779 Stewart Creek, 4.4 miles, 18 occupied homes - FOR BLACK TOPPING #2050, Anderson Creek, 3.4 miles, 22 occupied homes, add to system.
