W.Va. panel OKs $25.8M sewer loan for Charleston
CHARLESTON — A state panel has approved a $25.8 million low-interest loan to help West Virginia's largest city repair or replace 18 miles of sewer lines.
The Charleston Gazette newspaper reported that the West Virginia Infrastructure and Jobs Development Council approved the loan for the city of Charleston on Wednesday.
Council member Chris Jarrett says the loan may be the last approved for big cities such as Charleston and Huntington. Jarrett says he's planning to introduce new rules that would require private loans for big cities, which would increase costs.
