Virgie Woodward challenges land-value increase; board maintains value
Summary
Virgie Woodward told the Shenandoah County Board of Equalization she faces flooding and disputed a land-value increase; the board found drainage responsibility fell to VDOT and voted to leave the assessed value unchanged.
Virgie Woodward appeared in person at the Shenandoah County Board of Equalization hearing to contest an increase in land valuation and to report heavy run-off and flooding on the property. "Owner’s main concern is the increase of the land," Woodward said; she also told the board the Real Estate Office had already removed an incorrect frame porch and lean-to from the record.
Board members discussed jurisdiction over drainage and concluded the run-off and flooding issue is one for the Virginia Department of Transportation to correct rather than a basis for changing the county assessment. Chairman Geary Showman moved for no change, Secretary Chris Biby seconded, and the motion carried with all members agreeing. The board recorded the outcome as "NO CHANGE."
