We’d like to congratulate Granville’s Mayor Patty Lewis on being named West Virginia Municipal League’s 2024 Mayor of the Year. It is certainly a well-earned recognition for her nearly 34 years serving the town as mayor.
In her tenure, she has overseen major growth and expansion, particularly at the University Town Centre but also a revival of Granville’s main street.
Upon receiving her award, Lewis acknowledged that the recognition is for all of Granville and the progress it has made. We hope, though, that she realizes just how much leadership determines a municipality’s success or failure. And her leadership has certainly contributed to the town’s success.
