Relating to county parks and recreation commission

HB 3001 authorizes West Virginia county courts to establish county parks and recreation commissions, requiring them to create these bodies unless financially unable or if a commission already exists. The bill specifies commissions must have 11 members (adjusted for county population), all residents who own property in the county, serving staggered three-year terms with initial appointments split across one-, two-, and three-year terms. It also requires county courts to fill vacancies and mandates that members remain eligible residents and property owners to retain their seats. This bill directly affects county governments by setting governance standards for existing or new parks systems.
