Understanding Stormwater in Prince George County

The Prince George County Stormwater Utility Program was discontinued in September 2024. Residents will no longer be charged a stormwater fee on their real estate tax bills.

Do you have questions about stormwater management now that the Stormwater Utility Program has ended?

We've created a helpful FAQ graphic to address some common concerns.

Here's a quick peek at what's covered:

Who is responsible for stormwater maintenance?
What are property owner responsibilities?

We have received inquiries regarding Land Use and assessment appeal deadlines. The information provided below provides a more comprehensive understanding of the process.

ASSESSMENT CALENDAR:
January 28: Assessment Notices Mailed
March 1: Office Appeal Deadline
April 1: Board of Equalization Deadline*
June 7: Board of Equalization Hearings

*Appeals submitted after March 1 will still be reviewed by the Assessor’s staff before being presented to the Board of Equalization. If an adjustment is made that the property owner agrees with, it will be implemented without the need for a hearing with the Board of Equalization. The owner will not need to be present at the hearing. This is a customary practice in many jurisdictions across the state.

What happens after a resident submits an appeal?

Upon receiving an appeal, the Real Estate Assessment team reaches out to the property owner to discuss their concerns. They conduct thorough research on the property, examining courthouse records and GIS data, and may conduct a site visit if deemed necessary. Once the Assessor has reviewed all available information, they will communicate their findings with the property owner.

What is a Board of Equalization?

The Board of Equalization is a five-member citizen board whose members are appointed by the Circuit Court. Most members have experience in real estate sales, appraisal, or finance. In late May or Early June each year, the board reviews appeals filed by April 1.

LAND USE CALENDAR:
March 6: Public Meeting on the Land Use (6:00 PM - County Administration Boardroom)
May 1: Land Use Initial Application Deadline

What happens after a resident applies?
Applications are typically approved within two weeks. If a property is not approved, the applicant will be notified via phone.

Residents can reach out to the Real Estate Assessor's office at 804-722-8629 for assistance, whether you have questions, want to discuss your assessment, or need guidance on the appeal process.
