FAYETTEVILLE, W.Va. — The Fayette County Commission has filled the vacancy created by this month’s death of Commissioner Greg Fernett.
The commission appointed Chuck Miller Friday. He took the oath of office at the Fayette County Courthouse.
Miller will serve in the position until Fayette County voters elect a candidate in the November General Election to serve the four years left on Fernett’s six-year term in office.
Miller said Friday he hopes to be a candidate. The Republican and Democratic executive committees in Fayette County will decide who will be on the ballot.
