2014 Virginia Code
Title 33.1 - Highways, Bridges and Ferries
§ 33.1-138. (Repealed effective October 1, 2014) How fund expended

All money deposited in or transferred to the Highway Right-of-Way Fund shall be expended by the Commonwealth Transportation Board for the acquisition of properties to constitute rights-of-way for highways and streets, including those within cities and towns. The Board shall expend such fund for acquisition of properties which will be needed for future highway construction purposes, whenever the Commissioner of Highways deems such acquisition necessary, due to the probability of development of such properties, and after the State Right-of-Way Engineer declares prompt acquisition is required to prevent such development and consequent higher acquisition and construction costs when the highway project is to be constructed.

Such acquisition is hereby declared to be in the public interest and any properties so acquired are deemed to be acquired for a public use.
