Summary
The council approved meeting minutes, ratified bills, accepted the February financial statement, approved a resolution allowing an interlocal agreement to pursue a farmers‑market grant, and held an executive session for a pending‑litigation update; staff said no votes or further action were required after the session.
The Leitchfield City Council handled a series of routine but consequential items at its meeting. Councilors approved the regular meeting minutes for March 16, 2026 and ratified bills on the consent portion of the agenda after motions and voice votes.
The council approved the February 2026 financial statement after a motion by Clayton and a second by Tutti. Members then considered a resolution to enter an interlocal agreement with Grayson County that would enable the city to apply for a Kentucky Agricultural Development grant to support a farmers market. Staff said the interlocal agreement language makes the agreement contingent on successfully securing the grant; the council approved the resolution to allow staff to sign the interlocal and proceed with the application process.
The council also voted to enter executive session under KRS 61.810(1)(c) for a pending‑litigation update. After returning to open session, Arlene summarized the quarterly litigation update and told the council that no votes or further action were required at this time.
Other items included announcements about an April cleanup (April 11), a Lawler Elementary fundraiser benefiting Leitchfield Fire and Rescue, a sidewalk and streetlight committee meeting (April 20 at 5 p.m.), and a chamber luncheon on May 7. A motion to adjourn carried at the close of the meeting.
