City Hall News: Week of April 26, 2021
Elkins, W. Va., April 24, 2021: The Elkins Water Board holds its inaugural meeting this week. The bid opening for the city hall parking-lot project has been postponed. Arbor Day plantings and observances are scheduled for Friday.
The April 26 meeting to open bids on the city hall parking-lot project has been postponed to provide additional time for contractors to update their proposals in response to a project addendum. The new date will be announced.
The inaugural meeting of the Elkins Water Board occurs Tuesday at 2 p.m. The water board manages the city’s water system. At this first meeting, the board will elect officers, review its establishing statute, and take other initial administrative actions. The board will also review the financial position of the city’s Water Fund.
In observance of Arbor Day, the Emma Scott Garden Club will be planting a tree at noon on Friday at the Davis Street Park. Also on Friday, at 2 p.m., the Elkins Tree Board will host an Arbor Day celebration and tree-planting in Glendale Park.
There are openings on the Elkins Planning Commission and the Elkins Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA). These volunteer positions play crucial roles in city governance. The Elkins Planning Commission is nearing the end of a five-year project to update the city’s zoning laws, which have been mostly unchanged since adoption in the middle of the 1900s. The BZA hears appeals of zoning decisions and related matters and will play an important role in administering the updated zoning laws.
