BACKGROUND
Background
It is the parties desire that High Point realize the higher collection rates on municipal liens that they believe are likely to follow from the inclusion of those liens on County tax bills while minimizing any additional cost or manpower required of the County to accommodate this. Therefore, the County will, without charge, for those properties within the High Point City limits and specified by the City, include on its annual tax bills and routine follow-up bills, and on similar bills for parcels on which no tax may be due, amounts due High Point (other than for ad valorem taxes) which are secured by valid lien(s) legally collectible in the same manner as ad valorem taxes. It is proposed that liens will first appear on 790 2017 tax bills and the total amount due will be $966,161.79.
