Orange County side
Mebane straddles the Orange–Alamance county line, and only its eastern edge reaches into Orange County. Those Orange-side parcels pay the Orange County levy plus Mebane’s town rate, with no school-district tax. The town council rejected a proposed rate increase for this year, so the municipal rate holds — check which county a Mebane address is in before comparing bills, because the two county rates differ sharply.
