 T. Weston, Inc. v. Mineral County, WV, et al., No. 32890
County Court of Mercer County, 85 W.Va. 359, 101 S.E. A county commission that has created a planning commission pursuant to W.Va. Code, 8-24-1, et seq.
Mineral County argues that W.Va. Code, 7-1-3jj(b) [2002] does not have a limiting effect on the authority of counties that have a planning commission to enact ordinances of the type authorized by W.Va. Code, 7-1-3jj(b) [2002].
Responding to this argument, Weston says that assuming, arguendo, that Mineral County did not rely on W.Va. Code, 7-1-3jj(b) [2002] to enact the ordinance in question, the ordinance is nevertheless invalid.
