WV SCHOOL BUILDING AUTHORITY AWARDS $121,000 FOR REPAIRS TO HEATING-AIR CONDITIONING - Calhoun Middle-High School

(09/20/2018)

The West Virginia School Building Authority's board voted Monday to award Calhoun County the first money from a fund the Legislature mandated to provide "emergency grants to financially distressed" counties. In a law passed in 2017 (House Bill 2561), state lawmakers required the SBA to maintain at least a $600,000 fund to help school systems that are "either in deficit or on the most recently established watch list established by the Department of Education of those counties at-risk of becoming in deficit." The law says the "emergency grants" are to be for "making repairs or performing urgent maintenance." The board awarded Calhoun County about $121,000 from the fund for heating, ventilation and air conditioning [HVAC] work at Calhoun County Middle/High School.
