CHARLESTON
(AP) — West Virginia cities say they aren't ready to accept more power
from state government, even though a recent legislative study recommends
as much.
The state Municipal League instead advises lawmakers to continue the pilot program applauded by last week's report.
West
Virginia has a highly centralized government. Four cities experimented
with increased powers during the five-year program. Auditors found they
successfully tackled blight, simplified business licensing and
strengthened their finances. The report recommends expanding home rule
to cities statewide.
The Municipal League suggests extending the
pilot for another five years while allowing four more communities to
participate. The group believes towns should be allowed in if they
qualify.
The league wants annexation excluded from the program.
But it and some city mayors are urging lawmakers to allow for tax
changes.
