Miscellaneous

Botetourt County charges a $20 annual vehicle registration and license fee ($11 motorcycle, $7.50 trailer), collected with the personal property tax. The code exempts "a person exempted under the provisions of the laws of the state", which reaches the one vehicle of a veteran with Disabled Veteran plates; no county section names disabled veterans, prisoners of war or Medal of Honor recipients.

Disabled veteran, no rating named. Section 13-28(b) of the county code exempts anyone the state exempts from the county vehicle license tax, and section 46.2-755(B) bars the fee on one vehicle of a veteran with Disabled Veteran plates. The county sets no rating of its own.

Boulder County's Veteran Service Officers help with disability claims, appeals, survivor benefits, VA health care and education and burial benefits, free and with no income test (303-441-3890, [email protected]), and give one-time emergency grants paid straight to creditors for housing, utilities, dental care, in-home services, moving, vehicle repairs and transport.

Veterans and families. No rating, fee or income test for VSO help. Financial assistance needs a DD-214, Colorado residence and a short-term hardship.

The Bowie County Clerk publishes no discharge page, so the statute governs: Local Government Code 192.002 has the Clerk record a DD-214 without a fee, and Government Code 552.140 keeps it confidential and limits who can get copies; the Clerk is at the Bowie County Courthouse in New Boston.

Any veteran with a discharge. Recording a discharge is free. Copies go only to the people section 552.140 lists.

The only veteran item in Bowie County Commissioners Court's October 2025 to October 2026 records is a May 2026 announcement in which Commissioner Mike Carter spoke about the Veteran's Assistance Grant; the grant itself is not itemised in the county's posted files, and the County Clerk's office is the route to the details.

Bowie County veterans. Ask the county for the current programme details; no rating test is published.

Davis, presided by Judge John Vincent, taking referrals from other counties - outside the Department of Specialty Courts' certified list, so charges are worked through the court with the VA supplying treatment.

The Boyd County Fiscal Court's 2025-2026 minutes - 27 sets read whole by OCR, the scans they are - carry two threads of veteran comment: Mike Wurts's thanks for the court's flags for the veterans' cemetery (May 13 and June 26, 2025) and Paul Reynolds's request about homes for disabled veterans on county-owned property (May 13 and June 3, 2025), which the court answered by offering a list of county-owned properties.
