Fiscal Court approves $1.677 million CDBG‑COVID increase for EMS project
Summary
The court unanimously approved an amendment increasing CDBG‑COVID funding for an EMS project from $1,000,000 to $1,677,000; officials said funds came via the Kentucky Department for Local Government and commended staff for securing additional support.
Bracken County Fiscal Court voted to approve an amended CDBG‑COVID agreement that increases funding for a county EMS project from $1,000,000 to $1,677,000.
Judge Teegarden said the additional funds came through the Kentucky Department for Local Government and requested a motion to accept the amended contract. "It is an amendment from 1,000,000 in funding to 1,677,000 in funding," the presiding official said. The motion was made by Magistrate David Couch and seconded by Sandy Roof; the court then took a roll-call vote and approved the amendment.
Court members praised staff and regional partners for identifying and securing the additional funds and noted the board’s efforts to reduce bid costs and otherwise ready the project for construction. No changes to the scope were described during the discussion; the amendment was presented as additional funding to enable the previously planned work.
The court recorded the motion, the second, and a unanimous voice or roll-call approval. The fiscal court will proceed with contracting and project preparations consistent with the amended award.
Details recorded in the transcript identify the Department for Local Government as the funding source; the court did not provide a project-specific procurement schedule at this meeting.
