Wyoming County community stands strong in solidarity in fight for clean water
SUMMARY: In Wyoming County, clean water has long been a struggle due to contamination of wells by sulfate-reducing bacteria, methane, and heavy metals. A local partnership with the Mountaineer Food Bank now delivers bottled water every two weeks to support affected families in areas like Indian Creek and Brenton. Volunteers, including Richard Altiser, manage the costly transport and distribution, providing critical relief for those unable to drink, cook, or bathe safely. Community leaders emphasize the resilience of West Virginians facing resource challenges. A major court hearing Monday may advance a long-term solution, offering hope to families fighting to stay on their land.

How to find safe, quality SWV childcare
SUMMARY: As school ends, many parents seek quality childcare, which requires careful research. Experts advise touring multiple facilities, meeting providers, and asking questions to find the best fit. In-home care offers a personal touch with consistent caregivers, while centers may have different approaches. Parents should check certifications via pediatricians or the DHHR website to ensure providers have proper training. Open communication with children is vital so they feel safe reporting concerns. Watch for red flags like dirty or smoky environments. Social media and recommendations help, but always verify the provider is state-registered to guarantee safety and quality.

As school wraps up for the year, many parents will need a quality daycare option. Finding the best crèche is of the utmost importance, but that can be challenging.

WSAZ Investigates | Neighbors frustrated by door-to-door sales
SUMMARY: WSAZ investigated the rising nuisance of door-to-door sales in Huntington as summer approaches. Homeowners report repeated visits by different salespeople, sometimes multiple times a day, causing frustration. Huntington city code 739.01 requires door-to-door salespeople to carry a hawker and peddler license visibly. Residents can verify licenses by contacting the finance division or using the 311 app to report unlicensed businesses. Other cities have varying rules, from no solicitation ordinances to none at all. The West Virginia Attorney General encourages complaints against unlawful businesses to increase enforcement. Homeowners are urged to ask for permits before engaging with salespeople.

Door-to-door sales are on the rise heading into summer, so WSAZ stepped in to investigate what is permitted and what is not.
