The agreement directs Monongalia County to administer Marion County’s floodplain ordinance until Marion County’s floodplain court administrator obtains certification. Commissioners said Marion County moved its floodplain coordinator position into emergency management, and the arrangement allows Monongalia County to provide temporary administration to maintain continuity of floodplain oversight.

County staff told the commission the agreement has been reviewed by the State Floodplain Control Office and that the arrangement is authorized under West Virginia state law. One commissioner recorded a vote against the measure; the motion carried with two votes in favor.

The commission did not provide further implementation details at the meeting, including whether a specific Monongalia County staff member will be assigned day-to-day responsibilities, or whether additional interagency indemnities or cost-sharing terms apply. The agreement as presented at the meeting was for a one-year term.

The commission’s approval follows a brief motion and second on the item and came during the meeting’s new-business agenda.

Votes at the meeting show the motion passed 2-1. The commission recorded no amendments to the agreement during the session.","The Monongalia County Commission voted 2-1 to approve a one-year intergovernmental agreement to administer Marion County’s floodplain ordinance until Marion County’s floodplain administrator is certified; the arrangement was vetted by the State Floodplain Control Office and is authorized by West Virginia state law.","actionData","errors"]
