Ferry Bill Passes in House of Delegates Amid Debate
In a lengthy session covering Norfolk, Portsmouth, and Virginia politics, the ferry bill affecting Norfolk County and the Port became law by a 51 to 1 vote. Debates featured Mr Cooke of Norfolk City and Mr Thind of Portsmouth, with opposition from Coles of Northampton and Newberne. The measure authorizes the Port Authority to operate a ferry franchising process and includes proposed taxes on dairy and food products connected to a new Department of Agriculture post. Legislative actions also touched on Confederate veteran policies and a pending city charter review for Richmond.
