| The Calhoun Commission will discuss Monday a request from the West Virginia Public Service Commission to consider dropping the investigation of the Mt. Zion Public Service District, and to hear an update on the $5.2 million water project, which has now been given the go-ahead by USDA officials.
WV Public Service attorney Leslie Anderson says the request to discontinue the investigation is based on statements made to the agency by PSD attorney Tom Whittier, indicating many of the PSD problems have been resolved.
Anderson indicated there is some consensus that it is important to "move ahead."
Whittier says he was expressing concerns that the Calhoun Commission's investigation of the PSD could hold up the project.
USDA's Virginia McDonald says that is not the case, and has set time-lines to start contracting the project.
Mt. Zion PSD board members also voted to support the investigation.
The WV Public Service Commission has issued another delay in concluding their investigation, which the agency now says will be concluded in January, 2011.
The County Commission will accept the resignation of prosecuting attorney Shelly DeMarino and begin reviewing applications for her replacement.
The commission will discuss a pending lawsuit by former deputy sheriff Ron Bandy against the county for legal fees of over $30,000, related to a larceny case brought against him in Calhoun Circuit Court, and later dismissed.
Bandy's request for payment of his attorney fees was denied.
May 11 election items will be reviewed by County Clerk Richard Kirby.
A number of items are on docket for the meeting which starts at 9 a.m.
