Votes at Woodford County committee: budget, KCTCS EMS agreement and Big Sink sidewalk supplement recommended

The Woodford County Fiscal Court committee carried several procedural motions by voice vote during a special session and recommended multiple items for the full fiscal court to act on.

Motion to recommend the FY 2026–27 budget: Squire Brown moved to recommend the proposed budget (as amended during committee); Squire Carl seconded. The committee carried the motion by unanimous voice vote. The transcript records the recommendation but does not provide a roll-call tally beyond the unanimous voice result.

KCTCS memorandum of agreement for EMS student training: Committee members recommended a five-year memorandum of agreement between the county and the Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS) to support Woodford County EMS training for students. The motion was moved by Squire Blackford and seconded by Squire Carl and carried by voice vote.

Big Sink sidewalk supplemental agreement: The committee moved and seconded a recommendation to the full fiscal court to approve a supplemental letter of agreement related to the Big Sink sidewalk TAP project; the motion carried by voice vote.

Other procedural items: The treasurer reported a bill-list total of $14,294,834.54. Staff presented bids for an emergency-management logistics facility and were given a short period for members to review; the judge proposed allowing acceptance of a bid via emailed approval if no objections are raised (no formal award vote was taken at the meeting). The committee also authorized the county attorney to draft a zoning map amendment ordinance for 2180 Huntertown Road (Liftoff Equestrian) if the court wishes to proceed; that authorization is for drafting and does not itself change zoning.

All motions described above were recorded in the transcript as carried by voice vote and were recommended for approval at the full fiscal court meeting.
