Franklin County Fiscal Court receives parks project updates, takes no action

County Judge/Executive Michael Mueller called a special work session of the Franklin County Fiscal Court to order at 4:01 p.m. Feb. 24, held as a video teleconference under KRS 61.826. Court members received updates on county parks projects, including an update on Lakeview Park and discussion of park amenities for 67 Buena Vista; no formal action was taken on either item.

The session was attended by Squire Sherry Sebastian, Squire JW Blackburn, Squire Kelly Dycus, Squire Mike Harrod, Squire Tanner, Squire Eric Whisman and County Attorney Max Comley, along with meeting participants Amy Quatman, Belinda Dimas, Jack Kennedy and Russ Greenwell. The record notes the work session was held “with Charlie Lewis,” and that the Lakeview Park project update was given; the transcript does not provide detailed contents of the update.

Court members discussed park amenities planned for 67 Buena Vista but the minutes do not specify design details, cost estimates or timelines. The record explicitly states that the court took no action on the parks items during the session. No departmental assignments, motions to refer projects, or budget decisions are recorded in the transcript.

A procedural motion to adjourn was made by Squire JW Blackburn and seconded by Squire Mike Harrod. Voting in favor were Squires Sebastian, Blackburn, Dycus, Harrod, Tanner, Whisman and Judge Michael Mueller. The motion passed and the meeting adjourned at 5:15 p.m.

The transcript lists no next steps or follow-up deadlines for the parks items. If the court pursues approvals, funding or contracts related to Lakeview Park or 67 Buena Vista, those actions would appear in a subsequent public record.
