Reply to comment by AndThenThereWasQueso in Question about Henrico personal property tax? by Worsebetter

It used to be much, much worse, but about 20 or so years ago the State legislature slashed the rate that personal property could be taxed at with the goal of eventually getting rid of it. Unfortunately, the latter part of the goal never came to fruition, and with the value of cars outpacing inflation during that time, we're just about where we were before. Thankfully, most localities, like Henrico, got rid of the stupid tax sticker you had to put in your car next to the inspection sticker about a decade, or so, ago...

Fun fact - before doing away with it Henrico redesigned the sticker from the county seal they used for years to a new one of the county flag. The new one was larger and turned out to be too big. They ended up doing away with it entirely because it violated state code on how large decals, etc could be on the windshield.

I've still got mine around here somewhere. I received it and never got around to putting it on my windshield before they did away with them.

Still have mine as well. While I like our county's flag, that thing was obnoxious.
