PUTNAM COUNTY, W.Va. (WSAZ) - The Putnam County Commission on Tuesday night approved plans for more housing in the area.

Property originally meant for single use housing along Winfield Road in Winfield has now been rezoned to allow for multi-family housing units. This will allow for the development of homes like duplexes.

During the meeting, the commission highlighted the increasing need for more affordable housing in the area as the county continues to grow.

The property has a little more than 28 acres of land for development.
