Logan County fiscal court adopts budget amendment, approves transfers and final ARPA broadband payment
Summary
At its May meeting, the Logan County Fiscal Court approved a $55,695 budget amendment, cleared $16,681.54 in transfers, and authorized a final ARPA broadband payment of $6,751.79 to Hopkinsville Electric Service. Personnel promotions were also approved.
The Logan County Fiscal Court on May 29 adopted a budget amendment to increase miscellaneous revenues by $55,695 and adjust the appropriation to the general fund, approved a package of budget transfers, and authorized the final ARPA broadband payment.
The court completed a second reading of the budget amendment and voted to adopt the measure after a motion, with the chair calling for a roll-call vote that carried. The transfers presented to the court — totaling $16,681.54 — were approved in a separate motion and roll call.
The court also approved the final disbursement under the American Rescue Plan Act State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund, authorizing $6,751.79 to Hopkinsville Electric Service as the last payment for the county’s broadband project.
In personnel business, the court approved a personnel action to promote Jesse Dyer (effective 05/25/2026) and approved a promotion for LC Skipworth to Sergeant with an accompanying stipend and credited service (effective 05/25/2026). Those personnel motions were moved, seconded and approved by roll call.
Why it matters: The budget amendment and transfers adjust county appropriations to reflect revenue and spending needs, while the final ARPA payment completes county spending tied to a multi-phase broadband project. The personnel approvals affect staffing and public-safety operations.
What happens next: The court will implement the budget adjustments and process the ARPA final payment; personnel changes take effect on the effective dates recorded in the personnel actions.
