Fleming County Fiscal Court approves budget amendment, reappointments, contracts and funding moves
Summary
The Fiscal Court unanimously adopted Ordinance 25-1438 (budget amendment), approved financial reports totaling $2.37 million across funds, reappointed board members, approved contracts including ServPro and ERS, and authorized a $50,000 Program Support payment to the sheriff and a grant application for a dispatch voice-recording system.
At its Jan. 13 meeting, the Fleming County Fiscal Court approved a slate of routine and substantive fiscal and administrative measures by unanimous votes.
The court adopted the second reading of Ordinance 25-1438, a budget amendment. It approved quarterly and month-ending financial reports through Dec. 31, 2025 showing total funds of $2,370,554.20, and it approved budget transfers and cash transfers as presented. The court approved Claims Reports, including payments for a conference registration (KCJEA), a small parts purchase from Napa ($13.48) and FCJC emergency lighting repairs ($3,115.00).
The court accepted Altius’ request to release a tower-space lease effective Dec. 31, 2025, approved Tri-State Elevator’s 2026 rate increase, and approved an agreement with ERS. It also reappointed members to the Fox Valley Recreation Park Board and the Fleming County Ambulance District Board; the clerk’s December reports, 2026 clerk budget and 2026 salary order were approved.
Separately, the court approved the surplus of a 2020 Ford Explorer and its transfer to another government agency under KRS 45A.425(3), and approved $50,000 to the Fleming County Sheriff from Program Support. The court approved two ServPro contracts for courthouse work and appropriated funds from Capital Improvement Funds to cover the work. The court also approved Resolution 26-1439 to apply for a grant to purchase a new voice recording system for the Dispatch Center.
Why it matters: the ordinance and financial approvals set enacted spending and reporting for county operations; contract and appropriation decisions authorize immediate work and transfers of county resources.
What’s next: several of the approved items (the ServPro contracts, bridge bids, and the voice-recording grant application) move to implementation steps or procurement and grant processes handled by staff.
