PARSONS – Tucker County Commissioners authorized a financial audit of the Tucker County E911 Center Wednesday during their regular meeting. Commission President Lowell Moore said the audit was ordered following a miscalculation of vacation, sick leave and holiday time.

“We moved to have an audit completed up at the Tucker County E911 Center,” Moore said. “There was a miscalculation of vacation, sick leave and holiday time. We want to get that cleared up and move on.”

Moore said the Commission also voted to hire two part time employees at the Tucker County Animal Shelter.

“We hired two part time employees at the shelter,” Moore said. “They will be paid minimum wage to start.”

Moore said Commission members also agreed that they would like for the Potomac Stone to be left in Tucker County.

“We made no stipulations on where is should be placed,” Moore said. “Our recommendation was that we hope it will be placed in Tucker County somewhere.”

Moore said the Historical Society are split on their decision.

“The Potomac Stone is located on Western Pocahontas Property,” Moore said. “Don Teter and his crew located the Potomac Stone and I give them lots of credit and praise for doing that. They would like for the stone to be relocated to the W.Va. Cultural Center in Charleston.”

Moore said he thinks it would be more beneficial if it is left in Tucker County where it was located.

Moore said the Commission will be holding Board of Equalization meetings the beginning of February.

“That is where the property owner contests the value the assessor assesses their property,” Moore said. “Property owners have the opportunity to meet with us and the assessor in a scheduled time and property owners can provide information as to why they believe the assessed value is incorrect.”

Moore said during the meetings, they are able to consider the appraised value amounts, but property cannot be reclassified.

The next Tucker County Commission meeting is slated for 9 a.m. Jan. 27.
