This bill amends and reenacts section 64-9-1 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, to authorize the Department of Agriculture to promulgate a legislative rule concerning state aid for fairs and festivals. Specifically, it references the legislative rule filed in the State Register on July 25, 2024, which is identified as 61 CSR 03. The primary purpose of this bill is to provide the necessary legal framework for the Department of Agriculture to implement and manage state aid programs that support fairs and festivals within West Virginia. The bill does not include any deletions from current law, as the section being amended is new and does not have any existing provisions that are being struck through.
