Real estate tax increase proposed | WAVY.com | Norfolk, Va.

NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) - Higher real estate taxes could be enacted in the city of Norfolk to speed up the construction progress of at least two new schools.

Mayor Paul Fraim is proposing a 2-cent real estate tax increase, which could go into effect next summer if approved by city council.

"I think if they need to do it, if it helps all the schools get what they need, I'm for it," parent Sharon Tucker said.

John Shoberg says he does not agree.

"Why are going back and asking for more money?" Shoberg said.

Virginia Beach just raised its real estate tax by six cents.
