Board of Supervisors
Powhatan supervisors to vote on putting 1% school sales tax on Nov. ballot
The Powhatan County Board of Supervisors and School Board are holding a special meeting to consider Resolution R-2026-40, which would initiate a referendum for the November 3, 2026 election on a 1% local sales tax for school construction and major renovation. Approval would not impose the tax; voters would decide. The county faces nearly $80 million in deferred school maintenance and capital needs, and the tax could generate about $5 million annually.
- Resolution R-2026-40 to request Circuit Court order for referendum on 1% school construction sales tax
- Tax proceeds would be used solely for school capital projects, including bond and loan costs
- Estimated $5 million annual revenue from 1% sales tax
- Estimated $60.5 million debt capacity over 20 years at 5% interest
- Ballot language: 'Should Powhatan County enact a local retail sales tax of up to one percent...'
schoolssales-taxreferendumcapital-projectsbudget

- Approved Resolution R-2026-40 to place 1% school construction sales tax referendum on November ballot (5-0)
