🛣️ INFORMATION FOR SOUTH CHARLESTON RESIDENTS:
STREET RENEWAL
Residents of the Village of South Charleston will see a street renewal measure on the upcoming ballot. We want to take a moment to explain what this renewal means and why it is being presented to voters.
What is the street renewal?
This is a renewal to continue with the ¼ percent income tax for the street repair levy.
What would the funds be used for?
These funds are strictly for the annual roadway repairs and construction; no monies will go towards equipment or salaries.
Why is this needed?
Our streets require ongoing maintenance and investment. Street renewal funding helps the Village plan for necessary improvements and maintain our roadway infrastructure.
What would this mean for residents?
The tax levy is an 8 year renewal. With an annual income of $50,000 this would cost the resident $125 a year.
When will resident’s vote?
📅 November 3rd, 2026
We encourage all South Charleston residents to
• Learn about the measure
• Review the information provided
• Make an informed decision when voting.
The Village of South Charleston is committed to providing residents with clear and accurate information about issues affecting our community.

🎒🚗 Back-to-School Driving Safety 🚸

📚 School is back in session! That means more children walking, riding bikes, getting on and off school buses, and more traffic on our roads.

As we head into a new school year, please remember to:

🚸 Slow down in school zones and residential areas.
🚌 Stop for school buses when their red lights are flashing.
👀 Watch carefully for children crossing streets and walking near roadways.
📵 Put the phone down and keep your attention on the road.
🚗 Allow extra time for increased traffic and congestion.
🚦 Obey all traffic signs and signals, especially around schools and crosswalks.
🏫 Be patient during drop-off and pick-up times.

A few extra seconds of patience can make a life-saving difference.

Let’s work together to keep our children, families, and community safe this school year! 💙

🎒 Slow down. Stay alert. Drive safe.
