Bardstown approves Tourist Commission FY24 budget; one councilmember abstains
The Bardstown City Council voted June 13 to approve the Tourist Commission FY24 budget following a presentation by Executive Director Samantha Brady. Councilwoman Betty Hart moved to approve the budget as presented; Councilman Roland E. Williams seconded. The vote carried 5–0 with Councilman Franklin Hibbs IV recorded as abstaining.

Brady discussed several new ventures the commission plans to pursue in FY24 but did not provide budget line-item details during the meeting. Council members thanked the commission for its work and approved the budget by majority vote with one abstention.

Next steps: implementation of the FY24 activities will proceed under the Tourist Commission's direction; staff will report back to the council as needed.
