Council authorizes administrative contract for Jenkins I&I Phase 2 under ARC/DLG funding
Summary
The council voted to authorize the mayor to sign an administrative-services contract with the Kentucky River Area Development District to administer Appalachian Regional Commission and DLG funds for Jenkins I&I Phase 2. The resolution was approved by voice vote.
Council adopted a resolution authorizing the mayor to sign an administrative-services contract with the Kentucky River Area Development District to manage Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) and Department for Local Government (DLG) funds for Jenkins I&I Phase 2.
As read by council staff (speaker 7), the resolution states in part: "Now therefore, be it resolved, on this August 2026 by the city of Jenkins that the mayor is hereby authorized to sign administrative contract and to enter into same contract with the district." The motion to approve was made and passed by voice vote.
Staff said the city lacks personnel trained to administer ARC and DLG grants, and contracting with the district is intended to meet state-administered program requirements and enable the project to access awarded funding.
