West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey announced the return of the Barboursville School, a psychiatric treatment facility for children dealing with severe mental health challenges. The governor said the state has entered into a five-year lease agreement with Youth Health Associates for the property. It will open in early 2027 and help juveniles with mental and physical challenges, along with those who have committed sexual misconduct. Many residents have concern about these juveniles being housed in the middle of Barboursville Park. The facility is withing a few yards of a splash park and playgrounds where young children play. Barboursville Mayor Chris Tatum shares those concerns and had a proposal to purchase the facility and work with the state to have the school at a more preferred location.
