User Fees In West Virginia

Folks who work in the home county of West Virginia University could soon start seeing a "user fee" deducted from their paychecks, Public Broadcasting reports.

Following the lead of Charleston, Monongalia County is eying the fee to aid the burdened road system in their growing community.

The link also offers audio.

A companion piece examines the region of West Virginia seeing the biggest boom, the Eastern Panhandle, but finds that "a user fee is not the answer to their traffic problems." Also with audio.
