QUICKY MEETING
CCC Meets
July 24th

It doesn't take long for the Clay County Commission to get done with what they want the public to know about. Their July 24th meeting adjourned in just 9 minutes. That's not a record (think the record is 5 minutes for a regular meeting) but it's still a quicky.
With all three Commissioners present and sprinkling of taxpayers in the peanut gallery we did manage a couple morsels. Here goes.

Duane Legg of Legacy Foods in Lizemores

   Duane Legg was appointed to the Business Development Authority with a unanimous vote. He's one of the few that actually operates a successful business in Clayberry. On hand, Angela Brown with the Health Dept provided, HIV is on the rise in County Clay along with syphilis.
   Commissioners David Schoolcraft and Connie Kinder are also on the CAEZ Board of Directors. When asked about an update on the CAEZ dragging their feet on a lease to turn over their Dundon Campground to the state to help grow tourism and a proposed rail ride, this: a contract from the W Va Rail Authority is coming, there have been no general, special, emergency meetings in July, and no dollar amount has been agreed for a one year lease agreement.
   They made no mention of the CAEZ hiring a new Director nor anything else.
So very sad.
