Putnam County approves City of Winfield annexation at 241 Winfield Avenue
Summary
The Putnam County Commission accepted a petition to annex property at 241 Winfield Avenue into the City of Winfield and entered an order changing municipal boundaries; the petition certified compliance with West Virginia Code §8-6-4 and listed one freeholder joining the petition.
A county staff member told the commission that the City of Winfield filed a petition to annex property at 241 Winfield Avenue and that a single freeholder joined the petition. The staff presentation said the petition indicated compliance with West Virginia Code §8-6-4 and that the parcel is contiguous to Winfield municipal boundaries.
A commissioner noted the city had two public readings of the annexation ordinance, and the county commission voted to enter an order accepting the annexation. One commissioner observed the property contains 13 houses and that the area is residential. The motion to accept the annexation passed by unanimous "aye." The staff member said the order requires the signatures of all three commissioners.
The meeting record did not include the annexation ordinance text or parcel identification beyond the address listed in the petition.
