State to shift roadside park cleanup to private groups
BECKLEY AP State highways officials plan to drop the job of cleaning roadside parks and transfer litter cleanup to civic organizations. The Division of Highways has reduced maintained parks from about 100 in 1963 to a handful today, closing parks when no group can keep them. Summers County Bluestone Lake park near Summers County may close, angering local residents. Ed Hannah of the Summers County Chamber of Commerce said the site is the area’s only picnic spot, while Lonnie Mullens noted the park’s winter closure and its tourism role.
