Travis, a county emergency-management staff member, told the court the National Weather Service briefing effective timeframe was a winter storm warning from 3 a.m. Friday until 6 a.m. Saturday and that the latest update indicated an expected 4 to 6 inches of snow and extremely cold temperatures. Travis said the county has posted updates to social media and that warming centers in Bowling Green will be opened; route information from city and county public works would be posted once available.

Josh, a road department staff member, reported follow-up on a recent ice event and said crews had handled dozens of downed trees and logged overtime to clear roads. Josh said the department was pretreating hills, curves and main arterial routes and expected to be back out at daybreak Friday. He requested residents avoid travel while crews work to clear and chip debris.

Judge Executive (name not specified in the transcript) and several magistrates thanked road and emergency staff and urged residents to stay home. Magistrate Aldridge, Magistrate Cummings and others specifically praised Billy Joe Simmons and the road department for response work during the previous ice event and reminded residents that first responders and public-works crews must be available for emergencies.

The court also noted available county assistance for warming-center transportation through the sheriff’s department for residents unable to reach warming locations on their own.

Ending: The court reiterated that the next regular meeting is scheduled for Jan. 23 at 9 a.m.; in the meantime officials asked the public to follow county social-media channels for up-to-date route and warming-center information.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Warren County Fiscal Court 01 09 2025","oneSentenceSummary","County staff and magistrates urged residents to stay off roads as an advisory called for 4–6 inches of snow beginning early Friday; road crews will pretreat main routes and warming centers will be available in Bowling Green.","taxTitle","Warren County, Kentucky","taxId",4041,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_46":80,"_48":81,"_50":82,"_52":83,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":84,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":85,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6395771,"Warren County Fiscal Court approves road additions, equipment purchases and appointments",1045,163000,1208000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2098262-f12022468e9fd53937bb26cccf2d22e3&start=163&end=1208","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2098262-f12022468e9fd53937bb26cccf2d22e3/thumbnail_163000.jpg","/articles/6395771/Warren-County/Kentucky/Warren-County-Fiscal-Court-approves-road-additions-equipment-purchases-and-appointments","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6395771-7abbb8ff3b8ebe422d43e6edff2722ed/orig.mp4?Expires=1775288684&Signature=msaV1jm4DI60iv4SiA3wNnBBawWy4QoXHjrYn7ElID13eB0cxfN8NizX6167V-JFtn7ZQ4h-VA-3iDhuKuA1u~9qsBTsOIFIW1nGFZzNo9bD59-IvgcbfrJ440grLYgEyhP4OzjOh68BErcl7Ky9o0raYmk0r7wDj3PKjnNjaXPpAlh-amRPWp2DlGy~7wg0HSACD215Swd2ZLNMSv54OoUkkiyZcUtxIDrBviDTLwSgYuYmPhj-~U4KRjmykN-nc0HJFHTFHTXvWMJEQl5oRxmEniQ13Wigss8AsW4vMjO~DN2TJtml5sdzpPuEFUUAbLjuXhrBsVYZlfuQ~czVQg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Warren County Fiscal Court on Thursday approved a series of routine orders, procurement determinations and reports, voting unanimously on minutes, personnel changes, road adoptions, equipment purchases and claims payment.
