Description

Transportation funding and administration for Hampton Roads, Northern Virginia, the Richmond Highway Construction District, and the Staunton Highway Construction District. Provides funds for transportation in Hampton Roads, Northern Virginia, the Richmond Highway Construction District, and the Staunton Highway Construction District by capturing a portion of economic growth attributable to or facilitated by the marine terminal for Hampton Roads, by Dulles International Airport and the Ronald Reagan National Airport for Northern Virginia, by the Port of Richmond for the Richmond Highway Construction District, and by the Inland Port at Front Royal for the Staunton Highway Construction District. The bill repeals the Hampton Roads Transportation Authority and repeals certain fees and taxes authorized pursuant to Chapter 896 of the Acts of Assembly of 2007 that are within the ambit of the Supreme Court of Virginia's decision on February 29, 2008, that they are unconstitutional.
