McKinney Mayor approves grant for tire disposal and infrastructure projects
The Lexington Urban County Council convened on July 1, 2025, to discuss a series of resolutions aimed at enhancing city services and infrastructure. Key topics included software procurement, grant acceptance, and funding for various community projects.

One significant resolution authorized the mayor or the chief information officer to execute necessary documents for procuring software and related services, with an estimated cost not exceeding $91,500. This procurement is linked to a contract with Sourcewell and Conoco Minota Business Solutions, focusing on the digitization of net profits filings for the division of revenue.

The council also approved a resolution to accept a $4,000 grant from the Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet for the disposal and recycling of waste tires, which does not obligate the city to additional expenditures. Furthermore, a supplemental agreement was accepted, allowing for $73,600 in federal funding for the West Loudoun Avenue Streetscape project, requiring a local match of $18,040.

In traffic management, the council designated a speed limit of 25 miles per hour on Dogwood Trace Boulevard and authorized the installation of appropriate signage. Additionally, resolutions were passed to support local arts and history initiatives, including a $400,000 agreement with Lehi Arts Incorporated and a $261,300 agreement with the Lexington History Museum for operational support.

The meeting concluded with the council approving multiple resolutions aimed at enhancing community services and infrastructure, reflecting a commitment to improving the quality of life in Lexington. The next steps will involve the execution of these agreements and the allocation of funds as outlined in the resolutions.
