The Calhoun Commission will likely give approval Monday for Calhoun's
E-911 addressing system to move ahead. Currently, there is a bill in the West
Virginia Legislature regarding uniformity with addressing and the creation of
an oversight board.
County Clerk Richard Kirby says everyone's address will be changed.
Local 911 Director Barry Pitts says plans are in place to move the county
ahead with addressing. Kirby says maps with name changes are available
for inspection in his office. A few road names have been changed, mostly to
prevent duplication.
The Commission will give approval and complete an agreement for the Back
Fork/Yellow Creek water project. The Commission recently received the final
piece of funding for the project from Governor Bob Wise, a $515,000 Small
Cities Block Grant. The water line extension has been on the board for
several years, having faced numerous delays.
The Commission will review grant applications Monday for 2002 and finalize
the Court Security Grant. The Commission will vote on a project to remodel
the current Magistrate Courtroom for use by the Family Judge.
There will be a resolution to appoint a Calhoun County Coordinator for "West
Virginia Watch," part of homeland security for the state.
