Allows homeowners' associations to upgrade orphan roads for state acceptance.
West Virginia SB407 allows homeowners' associations to upgrade orphan roads at their own expense for potential inclusion in the state road system. This requires a road maintenance agreement approved by the Division of Highways. If property owners do not agree to donate rights-of-way, others can donate to the state road fund to cover acquisition costs. The Division of Highways will inspect the upgraded road and, if it meets standards, issue a certification of compliance. The division may then accept the road into the state maintenance system.
