BK:00027 PG -.0704 The Chair ruled the motion had been adopted unanimously. The Board considered the Tax Collector's Annual Settlement. Tax Administrator Mary Yow asked the Board to accept the Tax Collector's Settlement, Resolution Approving the Tax Collector's Annual Settlement for FY 2014 and Prior Years, and Charge for the Tax Collector to Collect 2015 Taxes. Each year the Tax Collector must make settlement with the governing board per North Carolina General Statute §105-373. As part of the settlement the governing board charges the Tax Collector with collecting taxes for the current fiscal year and prior fiscal years with unpaid taxes. The "charge" gives the Tax Collector authority to use enforced collection measures and gives legal notice that the tax lien is first in priority. After discussion, Commissioner Oldham moved to approve the Tax Collector's Annual Settlement, a copy of which is attached to these Minutes and by this reference made a part hereof.

IT Director Kyle Edwards asked the Board to approve said Lease Agreement that will refresh the primary storage site at the Lee County Government Center which houses more than 90% of the county's mission critical data that it uses to operate on a daily basis. This lease replaces the existing equipment lease and allows a needed refresh of Lee County's data storage center architecture hardware.

The quotation also includes annual support and maintenance costs on the associated hardware and software.
