Legislative Update about Originating Joint Resolution 1

Thank you all. This is what happens when we work together.

In response to an alert from our lobbyist, the West Virginia County Surveyors Association stepped up and mounted a vigorous campaign to stop Originating Joint Resolution 1 which would have started an effort to eliminate the office of County Surveyor. With the help of the membership, our lobbyist, Will Swann, and the spectacular work of senators Dave Sypolt and Greg Boso championing our cause, the resolution was tabled and is now dead for this session.

This means it is dead for now, but that just sets the stage for the work we have ahead of us in preserving this office and making it the distinguished asset it should be.

Thanks again to all of you, and a special thanks to Senators Sypolt and Boso.

We can now turn our attention to other issues of immediate concern.
