WEST VIRGINIA LEGISLATIVE NEWS
from Eyewitness News Online W.Va. lawmakers agree on Tech Park relocations March 12, 2010 11:30 AM CHARLESTON, W.Va. West Virginia's higher education agencies are finally getting the green light to relocate to South Charleston's Technology Park. The Senate and House of Delegates had each passed versions of the necessary legislation last month, but disagreed over a House amendment. Following work by a joint conference committee, the two chambers agreed on the House language requiring lawmaker approval before higher ed's technology office could be moved from Monongalia County. The House voted 78-18 to send the bill to the governor Friday. The bill would allow the Higher Education Policy Commission and Council for Community and Technical College Education, now in Charleston, to anchor what Gov. Joe Manchin envisions as a public-private research center. |
