The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government's allegations, which have not yet been proven.
On February 21, 2018, The Greenbrier County Prosecutor's office filed a criminal indictment with the West Virginia Grand Jury charging Jonathan Blake Comer with with obtaining money by false pretenses which is a violation of WV Code Section 61-3-24. Comer was a contractor in Nicholas County at the time doing business as Jon Comer Construction LLC. The charges filed allege, the Greenbrier County Solid Waste Authority hired Comer’s company to upgrade its recycling drop-off and storage building for a county-wide program. The Solid Waste Authority paid $73,500 in advance for the construction, but the project was never started. The project received public funds through a $150,000 grant from the state’s Department of Environmental Protection. Seeing as construction never took place, the Solid Waste Authority was in violation of the grant’s terms and must repay $150,000 to the DEP. The DEP’s Rehabilitation Environmental Action Program (REAP) Recycling Assistance Grants Program awards funding to state solid waste authorities, county commissions, municipalities, private industries and nonprofit organizations. Comer faces up to 10 years in prison and/or a $2,500 fine. The matter is pending.
