Mathews County BOS Deadlocks On Budget

The Mathews County Board of Supervisors will try again this month to pass the fiscal year 2022 budget when they meet on May 24. According to the Gazette-Journal the board deadlocked when voting on the spending proposal which contains no tax increase. The tie vote was the result of a supervisor wanting to discuss a new Sheriff’s Office radio system before signing off on the budget plus the absence of another supervisor.
