"article": "A winter storm warning has forced the closure of municipal offices in Lynchburg, Virginia, prompting the city to extend the deadline for personal property tax payments by one day. The move comes as a heavy snowfall, expected to bring 4-6 inches, blankets the area.
The City of Lynchburg announced the closure on Monday, citing the winter storm forecast. As a result, residents have an extra day to pay their second installment of personal property taxes, which are now due on December 9.
Residents can make their payments online, at kiosks, or using the City Hall drop box on the 10th Street side, which will reopen on December 9 at 8:30 am. Other facilities, including the Lynchburg Public Library branches and the Lynchburg Museum & Visitor Center, have also been closed due to the severe weather.
The Lynchburg Regional Airport has canceled its scheduled 'Santa at the Airport' event, while public works crews and emergency responders monitor the situation. Residents are advised to avoid travel unless necessary and can stay informed through Lynchburg Alerts.
