DISCUSSION: Magistrates discussed an application for a Community Development Block Grant to fund the creation of a handicap-accessible entrance to the Historic Metcalfe County Courthouse and to install an elevator in the building. They also discussed the remodeling status of the new building for the sheriff’s office, which is now located on the second floor of the courthouse but will be moved to a one-level building on Edmonton’s public square. Magistrates were informed that a representative from the Kentucky Division of Forestry has looked at the trees around the courthouse and marked the ones he would like an arborist to look at to see if they can be saved. Some of the trees were damaged by a recent storm. Magistrates were also informed that Industrial Drive, which was once a county road, will now be a state secondary road. PUBLIC HEARING: A public hearing was held for magistrates to hear comments regarding the county’s receipt of County Road Aid and LGEA funds. No comments were received. The county is to receive $787,000, which will be used to make improvements along county roads.
