Bill overview
This bill clarifies the definition of ‘use’ within West Virginia’s zoning ordinances. Specifically, it defines ‘use’ to include domestic use, farming, and activities related to water drawn from the land, but excludes commercial extraction and transport of water out of the state. The bill also addresses how existing land uses that don’t conform to zoning ordinances are treated, particularly regarding vacant properties and agricultural operations, while maintaining protections for natural resource use and farm operations.
