Resident schedules August 5 public meeting in Morgantown on Mid-Atlantic transmission-line proposal
Summary
A resident urged commissioners to note a local informational session on the proposed Mid-Atlantic Transmission Line and invited commissioners to an August 5 public meeting at University High School in Morgantown.
At the public-comment portion of Wednesday’s Monongalia County Commission meeting, Juliet Marlier of Morgantown urged commissioners to note local outreach related to the proposed Mid-Atlantic Transmission Line. Marlier introduced herself as a Morgantown resident (123 Rue Lane) and thanked commissioners for engaging with the developer and for allowing the developer to attend a previous working session. She announced a Monongalia County informational session on the project scheduled for Aug. 5 at 7 p.m. at University High School and invited commissioners to attend. Marlier said many potentially impacted residents were unaware of the proposal and encouraged a large public turnout. Why it matters: the Mid-Atlantic Transmission Line has potential siting and community impacts; local informational sessions are forums for residents to learn about proposals and developer plans. Commissioners did not take action on the project at the meeting; the item appeared during public comment.
