Title

Consider approving personal property tax exemption status for Blue Ridge Free Clinic, Inc.

Body

Presented By:  Karen Rose, Commissioner of the Revenue

Recommendation and Review

The Constitution of Virginia allows for specific local tax exemption. Prior to January 1, 2003, the General Assembly passed bills exempting an organization from local taxation and as of January 1, 2003, local elected officials were given the authority to make the determination.  Harrisonburg City Code §4-2-17 addresses local real and personal property exemption. Blue Ridge Free Clinic, Inc.is requesting exemption under this code.
