Fleming County Fiscal Court · March 1, 2026

Summary

Judge/Executive Foxworthy asked magistrates to review sample Request for Proposals for an exclusive residential and commercial solid-waste and recycling franchise; he cautioned the franchise process will be lengthy and must comply with Kentucky Revised Statutes.

At the Feb. 11 Fleming County Fiscal Court meeting, Judge/Executive Larry H. Foxworthy asked magistrates to review samples of Requests for Proposals concerning a potential exclusive franchise for residential and commercial solid-waste and recycling collection and disposal services and noted the item will return for discussion at the next meeting.

Foxworthy told magistrates the county would need to follow requirements under the Kentucky Revised Statutes to implement an exclusive franchise service and that the process could be lengthy. The court did not take final action at the Feb. 11 meeting; it directed members to review RFP samples in advance of the next session.

The transcript does not specify a timeline for drafting the RFPs, the legal counsel or consultant who will prepare required notices, nor potential bidders; those details will be developed in subsequent meetings.
