To require DOH, when abandoning a right of way, to notify the legislative representatives in the county or counties in which this right of way is located via email and first class mail in addition to publication in the newspaper
HB 2390 requires the West Virginia Commissioner of Highways to notify county legislative representatives via email or first-class mail when abandoning a road right-of-way, in addition to existing newspaper publication and website posting. This bill amends §17-2A-8 of the West Virginia Code to add direct notification of state legislators representing the affected county or counties. The change ensures lawmakers receive timely, specific updates about road abandonment decisions impacting their districts. It does not alter the existing requirements for public notice through newspaper ads or online posting.
