Thumbs Down to the Town of Christiansburg

I'm the town of Christiansburg. My standard operating procedure is to:

  • Arbitrarily decide that someone who always pays their property tax bill owes me $57 for some reason. I've got to make money somehow!
  • Put a hold on the person's DMV account so they can't renew their registration at the end of the year.
  • Otherwise, not tell them about the money due, so the person never finds out about it until a year later when trying to renew said registration.
  • Be unable to explain what the $57 is for. I just know that this person owes me $57 and that ought to be enough.
  • Not accept payments online. After all, the internet isn't a truck whereas a physical check will be delivered in a US Postal Service truck.
