We're not completely past the season of Daffodils for spring 2023. These white ones are weathering the changing temperatures nicely by Big Creek in the Gradyville area. Comments | Permalink

After a rocky start ACJE says he is not giving up
2023-04-24 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com
Adair County Judge Executive Larry Russell Bryant took a minute after the Economic Development Authority meeting to say he will not give up asking for an occupational tax which will put Adair County in line for future matching grant opportunities. He understands he got off to a rocky start with the Magistrates when he asked them to pass a one percent occupational tax right at the start of a new administration.
Magistrates responded with a no but have since offered to support a quarter percent occupational tax. All eight of them are talking about a two-year window which should stabilize the county budget with possible tax relief after that. Some Adair County Magistrates are proud to be one of ten counties among the state's 120 getting by with no payroll tax. The Judge, however, says he wants more for Adair County's future than just getting by. He said voting in anything less than a one percent tax goes against all the advice he's had researching other counties across the state and in surrounding counties that have already instituted this tax. The conversation will continue. Comments | Permalink
