A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO AUTHORIZE THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF WAYNE COUNTY TO LEVY, ASSESS, AND COLLECT A SOLID WASTE FEE.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  The Board of Commissioners of Wayne County may adopt an ordinance that provides for the levy, assessment, and collection of a solid waste fee each fiscal year from each household that does not have a municipal or private refuse collection service and, thus, does not pay a tipping fee for solid waste management.  This fee may be billed with the ad valorem taxes, may be payable in the same manner as ad valorem taxes, and, in the case of nonpayment, may result in the imposition of a lien on the property owner's real property in the same manner as ad valorem taxes.  The county may use the revenue generated by the fees only for solid waste management that is partially supported by tipping fees paid, directly or indirectly, by households not subject to the fee.  The fee authorized by this act may become effective only on the first day of a month following the date on which the ordinance or resolution levying the fee is adopted. 
Sec. 2.  This act is effective upon ratification.
