Bill overview
This bill changes how much of the real estate transfer tax collected by West Virginia counties goes to the county clerk’s office. Starting in 2025, 65% of the tax collected will be retained by the county and used for election administration, infrastructure, and security, as well as other clerk-related purposes. The bill also outlines specific funding allocations for the clerk’s office over several years and allows the county clerk to move funds between designated accounts with county commission approval.
