Monroe board okays budget amid dispute over balance claim
Monroe County school leaders adopted a $11.2 million revenue plan for the next year with a projected deficit of $580,000 not reflected in the budget, while Superintendent Lyn Guy called the document misleading and urged an explicit disclaimer. The board also approved a $3.2 million bond levy vote for May 12 and awarded construction contracts for a new Union school, with State authority grants boosting funding.

City curfew hearing postponed over constitutional questions
A planned city curfew postpones enforcement as a Kanawha County hearing on its constitutionality is set for July 15. The measure would bar minors from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. on weekdays and midnight to 6 a.m. on weekends. The suit, led by the ACLU state chapter and three students plus a mother, argues rights to happiness, due process, equal protection, and speech.
