15 POINTS to Restore Progress & Prosperity

to Pocahontas County!

1. FIRE ED RILEY!  Demand a full accounting!  Clean-up the Pocahontas County Solid Waste Authority (PCSWA) by appointing ALL NEW MEMBERS that will follow the law – End all Lawsuits & Expunge all Judgments & Liens – and Exempt all persons on fixed-incomes pursuant to State Law!

     

2. FIRE THE GVEDC! End the ‘Poverty Preservation Society’ – replace the ‘Greenbrier Valley Economic Development Corporation’ (GVEDC) with a new ‘Pocahontas County Development Authority (PCDA) comprised of rank & file Citizens who want good clean businesses!

3. REBUILD FORT WARRICK!  Turn the Public Land in Green Bank into a Tourist Park – NOT into ‘open-pits & tanks’ filled with raw-human-sewage-waste – our environment is too valuable to waste!

4. FIRE DONALD TRUMP!  Reject a Snowshoe Resort Area District (SRAD)!  The proposed Snowshoe-RAD will NOT PROTECT the existing ‘home-owners’ from the massive $1.5 BILLION-DEBT;  The Best Solution is to let the State of West Virginia revoke the Snowshoe Mountain, Inc. (SMI) charter, take over ‘Receivership’ and turn all day to day operations over to this county to administer accordingly in a ‘Workers CO-OP’  whereby 60% of profits go to the State Treasury & 40% remains for the employees to SHARE THE WEALTH for them-selves and this county – we have more than enough folks already trained in this county to operate Snowshoe & Silver Creek for the mutual benefit of all!

Otherwise there will be no end to what DONALD TRUMP will demand to increase profits – and his first will be to build a four-lane right down the middle of the valley along Rt. 92 to connect I-64 in Lewisburg with Corridor-H in Elkins – and if that happens, Pocahontas will be RIPPED APART & destroyed forever!

5. Establish ‘Cell Phone’ service for the entire county, and obtain other communication companies to end the monopoly of Frontier Communications!

6. Establish renewable ‘Wind Turbine’ electricity-service for the entire county – produce new jobs & increase the tax-base to the county – ‘forever’!

7. Order an annual Audit & Certified Budget from all government agencies in the county – pursuant to Federal Law – it’s a requirement ignored by the current county commission!

8. Order a listing & certified accounting for all county-owned land – so all Citizens will know the true status thereof for proper county wealth & development!

9. Establish a Referendum – for providing county funds to county organizations that are not county agencies!

10.  Establish ‘Public Works’ projects where & when feasible

 for the mutual benefit of all concerned – comprised of all

available people – including persons willing to assist Senior Citizens inside their homes –  paying a ‘Living-Wage’ pay-scale for each profession – Projects

include:  Completion of Durbin Library; Covered Pavilion for Farmers CO-OP; relocating residents out-of-floodplain;

rebuilding businesses who wish to stay in Marlinton; and repair & replacement for county infra-structures – all can be done for just the ‘Cost-of-Materials’ & the ‘Cost-of-Labor’, without having to pay any interest/usury to any             bank or financial predatory-lender!

11.  Establish an Inventory List of all underground Storage Tanks – for their structural integrity, location & removal away from all streams, ponds, river banks & flood plains!

           

12. Provide a legal analysis for each elected & appointed person working for the county pursuant to their statutory duties & responsi- bilities – for all that fall under the oversight of the County Commis- sion so that no one will ever have an excuse not to follow the law and carry out their duties from this point forward!

13. NO ‘FRACKING’ in this County – EVER!  Pure, Clean Water is too precious to ever risk polluting with toxic-chemicals – especially in a county which boasts to being the ‘Headwater’ for ‘Eight-Rivers’ – bottling pure, clean water should become the #1 business within Pocahontas County – therefore all persons with natural spring water will be invited to join the Pocahontas Pure Water CO-OP to bottle & sell pure water – SHARE IN THE PROSPERITY and live happily-ever-after!

14. Full support for the Pocahontas County Humane Society – a ‘NO KILL’ – animal shelter – that also subsidizes persons on fixed-incomes & shares the expense for neutering or spaying of all household pets – therefore as a county agency, they deserve the full support of the county commission!

15. NO ‘BIRTHPLACE OF RIVERS NATIONAL MON-UMENT’ PARK NEEDED HERE! – such a ‘designation’ would eliminate almost 40% of the federally-owned public land that we now all have access to use – unless we are willing to pay a ‘toll’ to use the campsites and drive the Scenic  Highway – and be occupied by a new ‘federal-police-force’ wanting to see ‘our papers & permits’, etc.!
