PULASKI COUNTY, Va. – The Pulaski County Board of Supervisor has introduced a locally-focused economic relief program to help lessen the financial burden caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
The board is considering a proposal set the rate for penalties and interest to $0 for three months on real estate taxes due on June 5. Taxes would still be due on June 5, but payments received after that date and before Sept. 6 would not have any penalties and 0% interest. Standard penalties and interest on late payments would resume on Sept. 6.
