Russell County judge says LGEA will cover coroner costs, CRA for road projects
Summary
At a May 12, 2025 public hearing, County Judge Randy Marcum said LGEA funds will pay coroner expenses and CRA funds will go to county road projects; there were no public comments and a motion to adjourn carried by voice vote.
County Judge Randy Marcum opened a required proposed-use hearing on May 12, 2025 at the Russell County Courthouse and said the county would follow state notice requirements under the Kentucky Revised Statutes and guidance from the Department for Local Government. He said LGEA (Local Government Economic Assistance) funds would be used for coroner expenses and CRA (County Road Aid) funds would be used for county road projects, as the county has done in prior years.
MarcUm said there were no questions or public comments called in during the hearing. Magistrate Waddell moved to adjourn the hearing, Magistrate Wilson seconded, and the motion carried on a voice vote; the court adjourned immediately after the vote.
The transcript of the hearing identifies the County Judge as Randy Marcum and lists a Fiscal Court Clerk (recorded as Kun Blanchet). The final line of the transcript contains what appears to be a garbled name string that lists "Randy Man County Judge Executive"; the record supplied here preserves the transcript wording but the spelling/formatting is inconsistent within the single recorded segment.
No numerical vote tally was recorded in the transcript; the motion to adjourn is reported as passing on a voice vote. No public commenters or written objections were recorded in the provided transcript segment.
