ACJE announces $1.4M in LARP funding for county roads Adair County Judge Executive Larry Russell Bryant announced on May 14, 2026, that Adair County has secured $1,339,000.00 in County Priority Projects Program (LARP) funding to support critical road improvements throughout the county. The roads awarded funding for resurfacing included Jay Wheeler Road, Gennie Hill Road, Yellow Hammer Road, Allen Schoolhouse Road, Huntington Way, Burkesville Loop, and Dunneville Road. "These funds make a tremendous difference for the people of Adair County and help us continue improving the safety and quality of our roadways," Bryant says. "I am so thankful to State Senator Max Wise and State Representative Amy Neighbors for working with us to secure these funds for our roads in Adair County." Bryant also recognized the efforts of his staff in helping make the funding possible. "I want to thank my Deputy Judge Executive Bridget Compton for the long hours put in behind the scenes to get this money," Bryant says. "Her dedication and hard work are instrumental throughout this process." Adair County Judge Executive Larry Russell Bryant also congratulates the Trabue Russell House for receiving $184,000.00 from the state budget for improvements to the historic property. "We appreciate the Trabue Russell House for hosting such a wonderful legislative update event," Bryant says. The morning refreshments--chicken, waffles, and fresh fruit--were wonderful, especially while surrounded by the beauty of the rose and lavender garden." Bryant also congratulates the Breeding Fire Department and Columbia Fire Department for receiving $216,000.00 from the state budget for a shared vehicle that strengthens emergency response efforts across the community. Additionally, Bryant sends his gratitude to Mayor Hoots for including Adair County in the legislative event and congratulates the City of Columbia on receiving recognition for projects involving Rice Drive, Watson Street, and Burkesville Loop. "One of the highlights of the morning was seeing Amy Neighbors and Max Wise recognize the heroic efforts of three Adair County Sheriff's deputies-Deputy Wall, Deputy Brockman, and Deputy Durbin," Bryant says. "After the horrific event that occurred just a few weeks ago, we are so grateful to still have these brave officers here with us today." Additional details regarding project timelines and road improvement schedules will be announced as plans are finalized. For more information, contact the Adair County Judge Executive's Office.
