WELLSBURG The Northern Panhandle Community Criminal Justice Board may make drug testing available, for a fee, for people outside its alternative sentencing programs.
The Brooke County Commission, on Tuesday, authorized the board to pursue the move, which is pending approval by the commissioners of the other local counties that financially support it.
The Brooke County Commission provides $30,000 to the board, which oversees criminal offenders sentenced to home confinement, community service and local day report centers.
In many cases, those individuals are ordered by courts to undergo periodic drug testing at the day report centers, including one in Weirton.

WELLSBURG In a year when most fairs and festivals were curtailed by COVID-19, volunteers with the Downtown Wellsburg group managed to organize a small street fair on Dec. 12 in an effort to lift spirits and boost small businesses that have suffered during the pandemic.
“With the pandemic going on and local businesses hurting, I thought it would be really nice to do a Christmas event,” said Angela Staffileno, a Brooke High School graduate who had written a thesis on small businesses while earning a master’s degree in business management at Duquesne University.
