Boyd County adopts $39.6 million FY2026 budget at second reading
Summary
At its June 26 meeting, the Boyd County Fiscal Court approved the fiscal year 2026 budget at second reading, setting total appropriations at $39,596,599 after removal of a FEMA line-of-credit item; the measure passed unanimously by roll call.
The Boyd County Fiscal Court on June 26 approved the county’s fiscal year 2026 budget at second reading, setting total appropriations at $39,596,599.
The presiding judge executive explained the figure reflects the removal of a FEMA line-of-credit entry from the summary page; that amount had been counted earlier because it is an expendable federal-related item but was removed at state/federal recommendation to leave it out of the present total and amend the budget later as funds are used. "So our budget will total this year 39,596,599," the presiding official said during the reading. The court then moved, seconded and approved the budget by roll call; commissioners and the judge recorded 'yes' votes.
Why it matters: the approved appropriation sets the county’s spending authority for the coming fiscal year and affects departmental budgets and capital plans. The court said adjustments tied to FEMA-related items will be handled by later amendments as necessary.
Next steps: the court approved the budget as presented; any future adjustments such as the FEMA line-of-credit will be made through subsequent budget amendments.
