HB 63 North Carolina House · 2025-2026 Session

Town of Andrews/Deannexation.

HB 63 removes four specific property parcels (totaling approximately 62 acres) from the Town of Andrews' corporate limits in Cherokee County. The bill directly affects the owners of these parcels - Steelhouse Mountain, LLC, and others named in the deeds - by ending their obligation to pay municipal taxes starting July 1, 2025. Key provisions include formally removing the described tracts (listed by parcel numbers and acreage) and clarifying that existing property taxes or liens for pre-2025 debts remain enforceable. The change takes effect June 30, 2025, with tax exemption applying to taxable years beginning July 1, 2025.
