The measure also expands the existing sales tax exemption for Goodwill Industries organizations in the Hampton Roads area to include similar organizations in the Fifth Planning District. A sales tax exemption is created for tax-exempt nonprofit organizations established for the purpose of facilitating the provision of affordable housing opportunities for low-income and moderate-income families within the boundaries of the Fifth Planning District. Roanoke Valley Housing Corporation would be a beneficiary of this exemption. This bill is incorporated into HB 131.
