A Note from David…
Public Comment for Jefferson County Commission meeting for November 21, 2024
I, David Tabb, a lifelong resident/taxpayer make the following comments:
PUBLIC COMMENT –
I, David Tabb, am still represent the 10.28% (2800 plus) that voted for me.
The November 7, 2024, approval of the minutes for August 1st, and 15th, September 5th and 19th, and the Special Meeting (September 26th agenda only, Impact fee) is a violation of WV Code §6-9A-5, that requires an agenda announcement before taking action.
Since Commissioners Majdi and Upson approved the outdated minutes on November 7, 2024; Majdi and Upson have condoned the previous actions of the Commission and will be included in the violation of WV Code §6-9A-6 and 7.
The Commission President and Vice-President neglected their fiduciary responsibilities by failing to include the previous minutes, within the required agenda pack, is in violation of WV Code §6-9A-5. Thus, by not approving the previous minutes timely, the County Commission is in violation of WV Code §6-9A-6 and 7, at each previous Commission meeting. Both Commissioner (President and V-President) were both made aware of the requirements to produce and approve previous minutes prior to conducting new business.
Additionally, the minutes listed within the November 7th agenda pack are in violation WV Code §6-9A-6 and 7. The County Commission shouldn’t have moved forward with the November 7th meeting, thus making the November 7, 2024, meeting in violation under WV Code §6-9A-6 and 7. These Codes are civil actions that can be filed at the Circuit Court within 120 days. The “…court may annul vote taken in violation of Act.”. There are millions of dollars of transaction that occurred. The $16.6 million dollar County Complex is now included within these violations and should be addressed by the court.
With the newly seated Commissioners: Keys, Majdi (change of magisterial seat) and Hefestay; if they approve the minutes for November 7, 2024, they too will be in violation of WV Code §6-9A-6 and 7.
I am concerned that the current County Commission will continue to ignore the requirements of law to include WV Code, and our so-called judicial system will not hold the current County Commission accountable.
“The public reserves the right to call out the public officials to follow the required laws to ensure the constitutional rights of the public. The Governor has ordered the Government to be “open for business” and not deprived the public of notice and comments that would violate ethic provisions.
It is hard to be safe, with the current County Commission.
Have a nice day!
