Charlotte County extends tax due date to Jan. 5, 2026 and adopts PPTRA rate resolution for tax year 2026
Summary
The Board extended the county’s Dec. 5 tax due date to Jan. 5, 2026, citing delayed mailings, and adopted a PPTRA resolution setting 24% relief on qualifying vehicles; the board also approved October invoices and utility payments and authorized county representation at VACo.
The Charlotte County Board of Supervisors voted Oct. 8 to extend the county’s first tax due date for Fiscal Year 2025/2026 from Dec. 5, 2025, to Jan. 5, 2026. Supervisor Noah Davis moved the extension, which was seconded by Supervisor Derek Toombs and approved on a roll call vote with all seven supervisors voting yes.
Board materials said December tax bills will not be mailed until mid‑November, and the resolution cited Virginia Code §58.1‑3916 as authority to grant the extension of up to 90 days. The extension is intended to give taxpayers adequate time to receive bills and remit payment.
The board also adopted a Personal Property Tax Relief Act (PPTRA) resolution for tax year 2026. The resolution, citing VA. CODE ANN. §58.1‑3524 C.2. and §58.1‑3912 E., sets personal‑property tax relief at 24% for qualifying personal‑use vehicles with assessed value of $1,000 or less, and 24% relief on the first $20,000 in assessed value for qualifying vehicles valued $1,001 or more. The resolution text and certification were read into the record.
On routine fiscal business, the board approved October FY2026 invoices totaling $749,517.82 and utility payments received after the September meeting totaling $12,993.99. Chairman Bailey also asked that County Administrator Landon B. Green be authorized to cast the board’s vote at the November VACo Annual Meeting because Bailey will serve as a presenter; the board granted that authorization.
The board adopted these financial and administrative measures by unanimous votes during the Oct. 8 meeting.
