The Garrard County Fiscal Court will convene on Monday, September 9, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. at the Courthouse located at 15 Public Square, Lancaster. The meeting promises a full agenda covering a range of important local matters that directly impact the residents and businesses of the county.

Scheduled to open with public comments, the meeting will then proceed to address several ongoing and new business items, including the approval of plats, court minutes, financial transfers, and payment of bills. The court will also review the county’s financial statement from the previous month.

Among the most notable agenda items are updates on infrastructure and public safety, including a discussion on the intersection of Old Lexington Road and Rogers Road, and the tax rates for the Camp Dick and Buckeye Fire Departments. Additionally, there will be a spotlight on local businesses and a proclamation regarding the U.S. Constitution.

Other items of interest include the approval of a contract for EMS billing software in partnership with the University of Kentucky (UK), and the first reading of an amended building code ordinance, which could affect future construction and development projects in the county.

The meeting will conclude with a possible executive session, likely focusing on confidential or sensitive matters if called. 

Community members are encouraged to attend and participate, as the discussions and decisions made at these meetings play a critical role in shaping the county's policies and future.
