Stafford County Supervisor Crystal Vanuch: “I have great news… remember a few weeks ago when I said I was introducing a request for more time to pay personal property taxes due in December? Well, it passed our Board 6-1 on Tuesday! They are now penalty-free until January 5, and you will have more time to make those payments.”
“Personal property tax bills go out at the beginning of November. These bills are due December 5th. With the impending government shutdown on top of difficult economic conditions, I think allowing residents an additional 30 days, penalty-free, to pay these bills is necessary. The bills will be penalty-free until January 5th.”
“The emergency ordinance is good for 60 days, so we do have to reauthorize at our mid-December meeting, but that was all part of the resolution we passed…”
From the Stafford County Board of Supervisors Oct. 17, 2023 agenda: “This item was added to the agenda at the request of Supervisor Vanuch at the Board’s October 4, 2023 meeting. Supervisors raised concerns about the financial uncertainty imposed upon federal government employees and retirees, a significant portion of Stafford County’s population, due to the previously stalled, but not yet fully resolved, federal government shutdown and the failure to adopt a federal budget. Supervisors desired to provide residents who need more time to gather funds to pay their personal property tax bills, more time to do so.”
The original deadline was December 5, 2023.
