Fleming County court votes 3-2 to serve Notices to Abate on three nuisance complaints
Summary
The Fleming County Fiscal Court voted 3-2 on three separate motions to serve Notices to Abate under Ordinance 26-1440 for nuisance complaints 1001–1003; the motions were moved by Magistrate Taylor Hunt and supported by Magistrate Kerri Marshall, with Magistrates Donnie Fawns and Ray H. Money opposed.
Fleming County Fiscal Court voted on March 23 to serve Notices to Abate for three nuisance complaints, narrowly approving each motion by a 3-2 roll-call margin.
Magistrate Taylor Hunt moved to serve a Notice to Abate on Nuisance Complaint 1001 under Ordinance 26-1440 Section III (2) and (3); Magistrate Kerri Marshall seconded. The roll-call vote recorded Yes votes from Marshall, Hunt and County Judge/Executive John Sims Jr., and No votes from Magistrates Donnie Fawns and Ray H. Money. The motion carried.
The court then moved to serve a Notice to Abate on Nuisance Complaint 1002 on the same ordinance basis. Hunt again moved, Marshall seconded, and the court recorded the same 3-2 split (Yes—Marshall, Hunt, Sims; No—Fawns, Money). That motion also carried.
For Nuisance Complaint 1003, Magistrate Kerri Marshall moved and Taylor Hunt seconded the motion to serve a Notice to Abate under the same sections of Ordinance 26-1440. The court registered the same roll-call outcome—Marshall, Hunt and Sims voting Yes; Fawns and Money voting No—and the motion carried 3-2.
The motions cite Ordinance 26-1440 Section III (2) and (3) as the legal basis for issuing Notices to Abate; the transcript does not record further details about the specific alleged nuisances or the properties involved. The court’s action authorizes staff to issue notices and begin the abatement process under the ordinance’s procedures.
Next steps recorded in the meeting minutes indicate that Notices to Abate will be served; the transcript does not specify deadlines for compliance, estimated costs, or whether affected property owners will be scheduled for hearings.
