Henrico County Government announced a series of updates on April 9, 2026, including details about upcoming Board of Supervisors meetings, changes to the Build Henrico system, and challenges faced by the county’s Social Services department.
In a post dated April 9, 2026, Henrico County Government stated: “The Henrico County Board of Supervisors will hold a special meeting at 3:15 p.m. and a regular meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday, April 14 at the Henrico County Government Center, 4301 E.

Later that day, the county shared an update regarding its online permitting and community concern platform: “Our Build Henrico system, for filing permits & reporting community concerns, is getting easier to access. Starting April 16, users will no longer have to maintain a password to log in. Instead, they will sign in each time with a passcode sent by email. https://t.co/Rs7Ig0Mlob https://t.co/WUFxKUeI4n”.
In another post on April 9, the government addressed space constraints affecting its social services operations: “Henrico Social Services has quickly outgrown its current offices. In its main facility at the Human Services Building off Dixon Powers Drive, family visits are held in converted conference rooms and staff work in crowded offices, with as many as five people sharing a small space.”
Henrico County serves a diverse population through various public services and educational institutions. During the 2023-24 school year, Henrico County Public Schools District enrolled over 50,000 students (source). Deep Run High School reported the highest enrollment among all schools in the district during this period (source). Black students made up the largest ethnic group within county schools for that year (source).
The announcements reflect ongoing adjustments and challenges facing local government agencies as they serve one of Virginia’s most populous counties.
