Citizens Ask...
By Michelle Williams
Q: Why does the name of the former owner appear on my tax bill? A: The Code of Virginia requires all real estate assessments be assessed in the name of the owner as of January 1st each tax year. When property is sold during the year the mailing address is changed to be sent in care of the new owner. The new owners name will appear on the top line of the bill as of January 1st the following year.
Q: I would like to subdivide my land. What is the process? A: It is strongly recommended to contact the Department of Planning & Development Services before embarking on the subdivision process. There are several "moving pieces," so to speak, conditions, and situations which may impact the ability to subdivide or the process itself. Planning & Development Services is the best source of this information and can be reached at (540) 672 - 4347. Further information regarding this FAQ can be found here.
