Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That § 15.1-995, as amended, of the Code of Virginia, be amended and
reenacted as follows:
§ 15.1-995. Any county officer or judge of a county court, of any
county who resides in the county or in any town therein, and has an
established home therein, which homesite has become or hereafter becomes
a part of a city since such officers’ election or appointment, shall not vacate
his office by reason of his residence in such city, but shall continue to hold
such office so long as he shall be successively elected or appointed to the
office held by him at the time of such transition. * Any such officer shall
for such purposes be deemed to be a resident of the magisterial district
wherein the homesite before becoming a part of a city was.
