the development of a specific project. Failure of the project or its tenants to provide
<br />accurate sales infomaation or to actually forward payment of collected sales tax revenues
<br />to the appropriate state agency shall void any responsibility of the county to pay
<br />incentives to the developer under the terms of the C/RDI grant agreement.
<br />Cities/towns must agree to abide by the terms of this proposal for it to be applied to sites
<br />within the cities/towns or a site subject to annexation during the term of the agreement.
<br />The C/RDI grant formula applied to a project within one of the county's cities/towns will
<br />be applied at the same level as authorized by the Board of County Commissioners.
<br />The incentive grants will apply to the first 1 cent and two ½ cent local sales taxes
<br />received by the county (and municipalities if applicable) based upon distribution fommlas
<br />authorized by the State Department of Revenue and adopted each year by the County
<br />Commission. It should be recognized that the first 1 cent is a sims based tax and the two
<br />½ cent taxes are distributed on a state-wide formula established by the legislature. For
<br />purposes of reference, the two ½ cent sales taxes each equated to approximately 58% of
<br />the revenues from the local full I cent sales tax each for the fiscal year ended June 30,
<br />1996. In other words, the total revenues from the two ½ cent taxes equated to
<br />approximately 116% of the full local 1 cent sales tax for that period.
<br />The County Commission annually establishes a local sales tax distribution formula as
<br />authorized by North Carolina Statutes. The County Commission retains the option of
<br />selecting between allowable methods authorized for determination of the formula to be
<br />used during any particular fiscal period. The County's share of the local sales tax
<br />revenues is reduced by an allocation to local fire districts ( the level of that reduction for
<br />1997 amounted to 2.41% of the total County's share). A history of recent distribution
<br />allocations of local sales tax revenues between the county and its municipalities is
<br />provided for reference:
