Summary
Oldham County Fiscal Court approved the county’s ambulance block grant application, a Pillar grant resolution, the release of an erosion-control surety, the permanent promotion of the dispatch director and several board appointments during its Jan. 6 meeting.
The court approved several routine but substantive items on Jan. 6:

- Appointments: The court approved reappointments and appointments to local boards: Bob Durbin and Jay Hall to the Oldham County Water District Board through Jan. 1, 2030, and David Gray reappointed to the Oldham County Board of Adjustments through Jan. 1, 2030.
- Accounts payable: The court approved payables for the two-week period after discussion, including an Encompass Development Designs invoice of $78,430.65 that Magistrate Lykins asked to review; the court did not withdraw the item and approved payment by voice vote.
