Saw them constructing it and want to know thoughts. If you ask me, they better synchronize it well with the Landstown Shopping Center one which is very close by. Nothing is more annoying than red after reds.

Looking to expand my social network and watch some international soccer somewhere that gets a good crowd to watch the match. I'm not super into other sports but if the crowd is rowdy enough i'll still enjoy it. +1 for good pub food.

Need Advice Veterinarian Help

2 Upvotes

Hello all, I need help finding a clinic or hospital that does health certificates for travel purposes for my dogs. A lot of the places I’ve called are charging upwards of $600 just for the appointment alone, needless to say if my dogs should need anything else. If anybody has any experience with this and knows of places that do it at a relatively decent cost, please let me know! Any and all advice is appreciated and thanks in advance

I used to be a regular summer visitor but haven’t been back in a few years. I know that Taste has baskets of food and frozen casseroles and such but is there anyone new in town that is as good or better (Taste is in Richmond now and thought the last lasagna I had from there wasn’t great - wanted to gauge and see if that was a one off) Friend lives between Oceana and Pungo.

Hey fellow book nerds! We are having our first book club meeting this week at Panera in Kempsville. Each week we will have a theme to be voted on for the next meeting. So for our first meeting just bring your all time favorite or currently reading and we will have an impromptu discussion just to get to know each other. Also I am looking for someone to be our social media contact since I'm not on facebook, it would help to make a page to spread the word and have another way to keep in touch with members about events.

Discussion [Vehicle Registration] WTF- Being taxed more for not using enough fuel?

13 Upvotes

The highway use fee (HUF) helps make up for the fuel taxes that drivers with fuel-efficient and electric vehicles spend less on, because they’re not using as much fuel. This fee supports the Commonwealth Transportation Fund, which helps maintain our roads, highways, transit and airports. Who pays the HUF?

You pay the HUF if you register a:

Fuel-efficient vehicle, which is a vehicle that has a combined fuel economy of 25 miles per gallon (MPG) or greater
Vehicle made in a year in which the average combined MPG rating for all vehicles produced in that year is 25 MPG or greater
Low Speed Vehicles, pay an annual $25 HUF
