The city of Lewisburg received one of several Community Enrichment Awards from the West Virginia Municipal League last week at the League’s Annual Meeting at Stonewall Jackson State Park. Lewisburg received the award for its initiative in adopting Ordinance 254 also known as the non-discrimination ordinance.
“I am pleased Lewisburg was selected by the Municipal League for its efforts to protect people within our city from discrimination in housing, employment and public accommodations,” Mayor John Manchester said.
This year’s Community Enrichment Award marks the 11th year in a row that the city of Lewisburg has been recognized by the West Virginia Municipal League for community enriching initiatives.
