Fredericksburg extends tax deadline, considers utility bill relief for furloughed workers

FREDERICKSBURG -- The Fredericksburg City Council voted to cut a break to furloughed federal workers who live in the city.

At a meeting on January 22, the council voted unanimously to postpone the payment deadline for about 1,800 personal property tax bills for city residents that were due on January 31.

Under current city code, the Commissioner and the Treasurer can waive penalties and interest at the request of the City Manager or designee for a variety of circumstances due to issues outside of control, according to city code. Realizing the hardship the incoming bills may place on those furloughed workers, the council voted unanimously to postpone payment of those bills until February 28 for all residents.
