The McCracken County Fiscal Court on Sept. 8 approved three subrecipient agreements for fiscal year 2026 to fund public-health and behavioral-health providers. The court approved a $23,417 agreement with Lifeline Recovery Center, a $57,992 agreement with the Purchase Area Health Department and a $23,417 agreement with Full Rivers Behavioral Health.

Each order included language stating the agreements establish record-keeping, reporting and allowable-use requirements "in compliance with KRS 16.291" or "KRS 15.291" as recorded in each respective order. The treasurer was authorized to pay the agreed amounts.

Why it matters: The agreements allocate county funds to local health and recovery providers for the coming fiscal year and require recipients to follow the record-keeping and reporting requirements the court referenced.

Court members approved each agreement by voice vote; the meeting transcript records the motions and that each motion "carries." Court discussion on the items was procedural; no objections or roll-call votes were recorded.

The orders did not include detailed programmatic budgets or outcomes on the meeting record; the court itemized amounts and compliance citations but did not read further program-level restrictions into the public minutes at the Sept. 8 meeting.
