Twice as nice: Henrico plans to offer 2-cent tax credit for second straight year
For the second year in a row, Henrico County officials are planning to provide a real estate tax credit to property owners in the county – and additional help could be on the way, too.
On Tuesday, County Manager John Vithoulkas announced that his proposed Fiscal Year 2023-24 budget would include a tax credit of two cents per $100 of assessed value, matching the credit that the county issued last year.
Senate passes TikTok/WeChat ban for state-issued devices
The Senate narrowly passed a bill on Tuesday that would prohibit the downloading or using of TikTok and WeChat on any state-issued device.
Senators voted 20-20 to pass SB 1459 introduced by Sen. Ryan T. McDougle, R- Hanover. Along with state-issued devices, the bill also prohibits government employees from downloading or using the app while connected to any wired or wireless internet network owned, operated or maintained by the Virginia government.
