Waynesboro Approves VPAS Tax Relief Request

Chris Graham

The Waynesboro City Council met on Nov. 13 and approved VPAS’ request to be exempted from Personal Property taxes.

This request was initially considered at a public hearing in October, with the final vote on Nov. 13. This will save VPAS $3100 for this tax year. Savings in future years will depend on the amount of personal property (mainly vehicles) that VPAS owns in the City of Waynesboro at that time.

The News Virginian newspaper included an article about this vote in their Nov. 15 newspaper, but it can’t be found on their website. In that article they have some incorrect figures on the amount of the federal funding cuts VPAS has experienced, but otherwise it’s accurate.
