WHEELING — The Ohio County Board of Education — its offices displaced by recent flooding — is moving its meeting Monday night to the City-County Building in Wheeling.

The board will meet at 6 p.m. Monday in Wheeling City Council Chambers, and might be meeting there for the next few months.

Ohio County Schools’ Central Office Building and the annex where board meetings take place sustained heavy water and mud damage as a result of the June 14 flooding and aren’t expected to be ready for occupation until later this summer or early fall.

“For this Monday, we’ll be meeting there and we’ll see how it goes,” said Karin Butyn, public relations director for Ohio County Schools. “We’ll see if there is availability for the room going forward.

“This is temporary for now. But if everything goes as planned, we could see it being where we meet in the coming weeks.”

Ohio County Schools has 14 school facilities, none of which sustained damage during the recent flooding.

The decision to ask the city of Wheeling to permit the meetings in council chambers was done because of the technology that exists in the room, Butyn said.

Ohio County Schools livestreams board of education meetings, and that technology would have had to have been moved from the board room and set up at another location.

“The perk of doing it at the City-County Building is that the streaming is already there, and ours doesn’t need to be moved,” Butyn added. “They already have the capability and ability for us to stream the meeting live.”
