Charleston Huntington, WV, October 23, 2026 —
Meigs County voters will decide whether to renew a 2-mill levy supporting the county Board of Developmental Disabilities. Officials describe the measure as a renewal of an existing tax, rather than a new levy.
The proposed renewal is intended to fund services for individuals with developmental disabilities, including educational and adult programs. The available information does not specify the programs in greater detail or explain how funding is allocated among them.
The election date and the length of the proposed renewal were not provided. The information also does not state how much the levy raises, its estimated cost to individual taxpayers, or whether the measure includes any changes to the existing tax. Those details are not available in the summary of the proposal.
Officials’ explanation frames the ballot question as a continuation of current tax support for the Board of Developmental Disabilities. The information provided does not include statements from supporters or opponents, the board’s budget, or details about the current levy’s expiration.
Voters will decide whether the existing 2-mill levy continues. The measure’s stated purpose is to support services for people with developmental disabilities, including educational and adult programs; further details about the proposal and its expected financial impact were not provided.
