Court reviews bids and repairs for senior center, shelter fencing, fuel; airport expansion discussed
Summary
The court reviewed roofing bids for the senior center and Cedar Center, said Keiko Insurance had approved up to $26,009.61 for Armour Services, discussed animal shelter fence repair bids (lowest $1,750), noted pending Titan Fuel pricing and contract, and received an airport expansion update including state aviation funding.
County staff presented a set of procurement and infrastructure updates to the court.
Roofing bids: For the senior center, Armour Services submitted a bid of $26,009.61 and Kelly Brothers $19,006.35. The transcript records Armour Services offering a 4‑year manufacturer warranty and 10‑year labor coverage on metal portions, while Kelly Brothers was described as providing longer manufacturer coverage and shorter labor warranty. County staff said both bids were submitted to Keiko Insurance and that the insurer approved up to $26,009.61 for Armour Services; they recommended notifying the insurance adjuster if Kelly Brothers is selected so coverage and payout can be recalculated.
Animal shelter fencing: The court was told of wind and tree damage to shelter fencing. Bill Smith submitted a bid of $1,750, and there was about a $1,000 difference between competing bids; the court discussed options for repairs and how to secure animals during the work.
Fuel contract: County staff said current fuel pricing from Titan Fuel had been received but a contract had not been finalized. If necessary, staff said funds in the county prison account can be used to pay for fuel temporarily until formal contracting is completed.
Airport and hangars: The court discussed airport development and a new Kentucky Aviation Association being formed to lobby for general aviation funding. Speakers said the state legislature previously allocated roughly $200,000 for GA airport support and that another similar allocation was received recently; the county is planning additional hangars and ramp space and will consider further expansion work and funding applications.
Montgomery Road: Staff reported meetings with Brent Brown and NewCorp on the new and old portions of Montgomery Road; the project could be submitted to the county within months but one segment showed earth movement needing contractor attention.
