Judge Jeff Rader and Kevin Ownby asked the Sevier County Budget Committee to raise the county donation to the Boys and Girls Club of the Smoky Mountains from $100,000 to $150,000; the committee amended the proposed budget and approved the increase unanimously.
Circuit Court Judge Jeff Rader and Kevin Ownby spoke to the committee on behalf of the Boys and Girls Club of the Smoky Mountains and asked the county to increase its annual donation from $100,000 to $150,000 — the first such increase in a decade. Their request was recorded during the meeting called to order at 12:11 PM.
Commissioner Ronnie Whaley moved to amend the proposed budget to raise the donation to $150,000; Commissioner Bryan Delius seconded the motion and the committee approved the amendment unanimously. A later formal amendment to Resolution 2026-06-22 (the official budget documents) was also adopted to reflect the increase.
