PUBLIC/HOUSE BILLS
H 557 (2019-2020) MUNICIPAL OMNIBUS BILL. Filed Apr 2 2019, AN ACT TO MAKE VARIOUS CHANGES TO THE LAWS AFFECTING MUNICIPALITIES.

House committee substitute makes the following changes to the 1st edition.

Section 1

Removes the effective date provision accompanying the proposed changes to GS 105-373, which allows the governing body of a taxing unit to, in its discretion, relieve the tax collector of taxes owed that are ten or more years past due when it appears to the governing body that such taxes are uncollectable, now providing that the changes are effective on the date the act becomes law (was, effective for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2019). Makes conforming organizational changes.

Section 6

Deletes the proposed changes to GS 160A-58.1, concerning a petition for annexation. Modifies the proposed changes to GS 160A-31, concerning annexation by petition, and GS 160A-58.7, concerning annexation of municipal property, by maintaining existing law that states that a municipality has no legal interest in a state-maintained street unless it owns the underlying fee and not just an easement (previously eliminated). Further modifies the proposed changes to GS 160A-31 and GS 160-58.7, and amends GS 160A-58.2, concerning public hearings on a petition for annexation, now providing that a municipality can include in an annexation ordinance adopted pursuant to the statutes in a description of the area to be annexed any adjacent public streets rights-of-way (was, any State-maintained street, street rights-of-way, or easement in GS 160A-31 and GS 160-58.7).

Makes technical changes to the provisions directing the Revisor of Statutes to recodify specified law into new GS Chapter 18E, Gaming. Corrects a GS Chapter reference to refer to GS Chapter 18E rather than GS Chapter 18C regarding the Revisor's authority to separate subsections of existing law into new statutes for necessary organization of the new GS Chapter.

Makes conforming date changes to allow any business or other matter undertaken or commanded by any State program or office or contract transferred to the Commission pertaining to or connected with the functions, powers, obligations, and duties set forth herein, which is pending on May 1, 2019, to be conducted and completed by the Commission in the same manner and under the same terms and conditions and with the same effect as if conducted and completed by the original program, office, or commissioners or directors thereof. Further specifies that the consolidation does not affect any ongoing investigation or audit and that prosecutions for offenses or violations committed before May 1, 2019, (was, May 1, 2017) are not abated or affected by this act, and the statutes that would be applicable but for this act remain applicable to those prosecutions.
