Summary

At a special April 27 meeting the Fleming County Fiscal Court reviewed the proposed FY2022-2023 budget, established a County Clerk permanent storage-fee fund to comply with recent legislation, approved the first reading of Ordinance 22-1362 and adopted the preapproved recurring expenses order; motions were recorded unanimous.

Fleming County Judge/Executive Larry H. Foxworthy called a special meeting April 27, 2022, at the Fleming County Courthouse to review and amend the proposed FY2022-2023 budget. Fiscal Court members examined all funds in detail and introduced additions and revisions before taking formal actions.

The court recorded the creation of a new fund for County Clerk’s Permanent Storage Fees “to comply with recent legislation,” and approved increases to budgets for the airport (a one-time grant match), the Chamber of Commerce, economic development, road materials, county road aid and county employee salaries. The minutes state that anticipated revenues for each affected fund were reviewed and adjusted according to upcoming projections and reported amounts.

A unanimous motion recorded in the minutes (mover: Magistrate David J. DeAtley; second: Magistrate James Smoot) appears immediately after those budget changes; the minutes do not specify the exact wording of that motion. The court recessed at 9:58 a.m. so County Treasurer Kathy Dryden could make the requested revisions; the recess motion carried unanimously (mover: Magistrate Ray H. Money; second: Magistrate David J. DeAtley). The court resumed in open session at 10:22 a.m.

The court then held the first reading of Ordinance 22-1362, the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Budget. The minutes record a motion to approve the first reading as presented and subsequent unanimous motions approving the first reading (recorded movers and seconders include Magistrate Donnie Fawns, Magistrate David J. DeAtley, Magistrate Ray H. Money and Magistrate James Smoot as noted in the minutes). The Fiscal Court also voted to approve the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Preapproved Recurring Expenses Order as presented; that action was recorded as carried by unanimous motion.

The court scheduled the second reading and final approval of Ordinance 22-1362 for the May 10, 2022 meeting. The special meeting was adjourned at 10:26 a.m.; the minutes record the adjournment motion as unanimous.

The minutes identify those present: Judge/Executive Larry H. Foxworthy; Fiscal Court Clerk Tammy L. Gray (roll call); Magistrates David J. DeAtley, James Smoot, Donnie Fawns and Ray H.
