Description

State secondary highway system; local-option retail sales taxes on motor fuels. Requires counties with populations of 50,000 or more, according to the last preceding U.S. census, to take over from VDOT responsibility for planning, construction, operation, and maintenance of state secondary highway system components within their boundaries prior to July 1, 2012. This would apply to the Counties of Campbell, Washington, Fauquier, York, Henry, Frederick, Bedford, Pittsylvania, Augusta, Rockingham, Albemarle, Montgomery, Roanoke, Hanover, Spotsylvania, Stafford, Loudoun, Chesterfield, Prince William, and Fairfax. Additionally, the bill provides, on a local-option basis, for a two percent retail sales tax on motor fuels in counties that take over responsibilities for state secondary highways, the proceeds of which would be used for secondary highway planning, construction, operation, and maintenance.   View Full Text »
