County Boundary Review Amendment

Senate Joint Resolution 1 proposes a constitutional amendment requiring West Virginia's Legislature to review county boundaries every 100 years starting in 2031. The review would assess population, demographics, and transportation needs, allowing the Legislature to redraw or combine counties if changes would benefit residents. Any proposed boundary adjustments would then require voter approval in the affected counties during the next general election. This amendment must be ratified by voters in the 2026 general election to take effect.
