Summary
Dion Wamsley of Upshur County Special Olympics asked the Commission for use of Pringle Tree Park and a pool-fee waiver for 2027; County staff said Pringle Tree Park cannot be reserved and Commissioner Tenney asked Wamsley to submit a formal letter requesting the waiver.
Dion Wamsley appeared before the Commission to request use of Pringle Tree Park and a waiver for pool fees at the Buckhannon-Upshur Recreational Park to support Upshur County Special Olympics practices and competitions. Wamsley provided an update on Special Olympics activities and said they need practice space.
County Administrator Tabatha R. Perry informed Wamsley that Pringle Tree Park cannot be reserved because it operates on a first-come, first-served basis, so the Commission cannot guarantee specific times or dates. Commissioner Kristie Tenney instructed Wamsley to submit a formal letter requesting a pool fee waiver for 2027; the Commission did not take immediate action on the request at the meeting.
