Here's more proof that once levied, taxes and fees rarely ever go away:
(Virginia Democrat) Gov. Timothy M. Kaine said Wednesday that he wants to keep the $1 fee that was added to the cost of vehicle registration primarily to help pay for the Jamestown 400th commemoration even though the celebration is over. . .Reminds me of the Spanish-American War tax, which just ended this year (the tax, not the war).In 2003, the General Assembly raised the cost of vehicle registration by $1 to collect an additional $6 million a year.
About $4 million was spent on an 18-month series of events marking the 400th anniversary of the founding of America's first permanent English settlement.
The remainder was divided between the Department of Motor Vehicles for driver's license security and the Virginia Land Conservation Fund.
