ST. CLAIRSVILLE, Ohio – The Belmont County Commissioners met a day early on Tuesday, Nov. 26 due to the Thanksgiving holiday.
Holidays may be a little more festive for Belmont County employees after commissioners approved a revision to the county policy manual to add Christmas Eve as a paid holiday.
The board also approved a motion for the purchase of property from the Ronald Reger Trust for a right-of-way needed to replace a bridge on Glen Run Road. The Belmont County Engineer’s office will complete the bridge project.
The board approved a request from the Wayne Township Trustees to reduce the legal axle road limit on the township’s roadways by 50 percent from Dec. 1, 2024 through April 15, 2025 based upon the recommendation of Belmont County Engineer Terry Lively.
Commissioners agreed to sign a grant funding document from NatureWorks specifying that the Belmont County Dog Park will be used only for public recreation or nature purposes.
