James Mayo Memorial Building Named by Bluefield Council
Bluefield town council unanimously renamed the new public works building the James Mayo Memorial Building to honor the late public servant James Mayo who died less than a year ago. Mayor Hurley will set a dedication date as Vice Mayor David Anderson requested a memorial plaque. Don Neal of Bluefield Monument already supplied one. A resident, Beth Hubbard, urged action over a Comcast cable damage incident dating July 20, noting delays in resolution and that the cable was below minimum standards. The town's engineer cited a smoke stack strike as the cause of the cable damage visible to the driver’s line of sight.
