  Tazewell County Treasurer Norman Cook dropped a bombshell on Tazewell County supervisors last Tuesday night , telling the board that the county had a $1.11 million surplus on hand at the end of June , the fiscal year finale.It appears that the $1.11 million is a true surplus.The $245 , 801 returned by the Department of Social Services was not earmarked for return to the agency , and supervisors believe they have already given back the $201 , 701 that the school board turned over to the county.Add to that the $666 , 178 left in the county general fund , and the county has a substantial cushion.Cook was clearly uncomfortable even giving the constitutionally mandated statement , leaving the meeting as soon as he finished his report.We imagine the chairs of three supervisors were even more uncomfortable.Two months ago , their vote told taxpayers the county could not provide all necessary services this year without a tax increase.We know they felt that way because their best information told them to expect a shortfall.The irony is that supervisors approved a four-cent tax increase in hopes of bringing in as much as $650 , 000 to fund increases for the school board and landfill budgets.The surplus would have covered those budget items and more , coming in at nearly twice the estimated revenue from the tax increase.Clearly , supervisors must get better information.

  County Treasurer Norman Cook presented the board of supervisors with a list of options for changing the decal tax Oct. 3.Cook said the board has four choices including eliminating the decal completely.
  ...
  Cook said the DMV would charge $1 per decal to handle the transaction. .Cook said 22 counties have abolished the decal and five have changed to a permanent decal.
  
  He said 17 have changed to the vehicle license fee and five have added it to the personal property tax bill.Virginia Beach is the only place currently working with the DMV.
  
  Cook told the board the decision on how to handle the decal was theirs but his recommendation would be to do way with it.He said the decal has become obsolete as a tool for collecting taxes.He said legislation allowing the division of motor vehicles to refuse service to someone who has outstanding property tax debts is now the main tax collection tool.
  
  Cook told the board he would need a decision by December in order to get new decals printed if that is what the board wants.

  County Treasurer Norman Cook said at the Oct. 3 Board of Supervisors meeting that his office is preparing to send out tax tickets during the week of Oct. 20.Cook asked the supervisors to arrange more equalization board meetings between then and the Dec. 5 deadline for paying taxes.
  
  He said the board had just a few hearings scheduled and that would not be enough for taxpayers who will be paying more as a result of the reassessment.Cook said the full effect of the reassessment will not hit some people until they see the tax ticket.
  
  He said the equalization board was currently scheduled to have their last meeting Nov. 2.Cook said that would not be enough time if several people wanted hearings before the board.
