# Berkeley County Commission Meeting 11/5/2026

At the November 5, 2026 Berkeley County Commission meeting in West Virginia, commissioners received an update on Inwood Park: base paving for the roadway and parking lots was expected within about two weeks, decorative fencing was complete, and a gate, park sign, mulch, and additional trees were planned. The playground was being put out to bid, with pricing expected in the coming weeks; no bid award or contract approval was reported. The commission also considered several subdivision and commercial-development bond reductions and a bond release, with engineering recommendations noted; the transcript indicates a motion and vote approving the bond items but does not clearly preserve the individual vote details.

The sheriff’s office proposed returning one vacant animal-control position valued at $42,674 and retaining an estimated $26,559 in residual funds for possible future pay-scale adjustments; no formal spending vote is captured. Routine hiring recommendations included annual salaries of $52,858 for a telecommunicator, $68,250 for a DRC therapist, and $43,135 for another Community Corrections position. No internal budget revisions, contract awards, vendor selections, or other procurement approvals were reported. Other business included approval of meeting minutes and estate settlements, plus hospice and Veterans Day proclamations.
