A BILL TO BE ENTITLED

AN ACT authorizing the town of Proctorville to bill and collect fees for sewer services as property taxes.

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

SECTION 1.  G.S. 160A‑314 reads as rewritten:

"§ 160A‑314.  Authority to fix and enforce rates.

...

(a1)     ...

(4)        A city may adopt an ordinance providing that any fee imposed under this subsection may be billed with property taxes, may be payable in the same manner as property taxes, and, in the case of nonpayment, may be collected in any manner by which delinquent personal or real property taxes can be collected. If an ordinance states that delinquent fees can be collected in the same manner as delinquent real property taxes, the fees are a lien on the real property described on the bill that includes the fee.

      This subdivision applies only to the Cities of Creedmoor, Durham and Winston‑Salem, the Towns of Butner, Garner, Kernersville, Knightdale,  Morrisville, Proctorville, Stem, Wendell, and Zebulon, and the Village of Clemmons.

...."
