City Reopens Election Study Commission Over District Plan
BLUEFIELD The city board voted to reconvene the Election Study Commission after finding the three district plan based on census data inaccurate. Legal challenges say the plan dilutes the Black vote, with a five district system urged. The board also approved a Planned Unit Development at 335 Preston St and handled bids for a garbage vehicle and a dump truck. Randy Lamb resigned from the Beautification Committee. Webster Gilbreath was appointed.
