Plain-language change summary

The amendment to § 15.2-2511.1 of the Code of Virginia clarifies that localities can create a process for returning surplus property tax revenues to taxpayers. It specifies that any refund to taxpayers may be reduced by outstanding taxes, penalties, and interest they owe. This means that if a locality has surplus tax revenues, they must consider taxpayers' existing liabilities when issuing refunds.
