Metro Tax District Approved, Additions to Come

The Loudoun board signs off so assessments can begin by Jan. 1 to pay for Silver Line.

The Loudoun Board of Supervisors Wednesday voted to authorize a series of new tax districts to pay for Loudoun's share of Metro's Silver Line project.

The vote included most of the properties in those district, but does not include several additions in the Redrum Road area east of Ashburn Village Boulevard. A public hearing on those additions will take place Dec. 11. Also, most of the properites south of S. Sterling Boulevard initially identified in the district were omitted.

The board voted 7-1-1 to establish the district. Supervisor Eugene Delgaudio (R-Sterling) voted against the motion. Chairman Scott K. York (R-At Large) was not at the meeting.
