The Campbell County Fiscal Court met on March 4, 2026, opening with a moment of silence, the Pledge of Allegiance, roll call, and approval of the February 18 meeting minutes. The Court recognized Teresa Brewer with a Citation of Appreciation for years of volunteer litter cleanup across the county, highlighting her dedication to recycling and roadside beautification. Solid Waste Coordinator Megan Abrams presented the 2025 Solid Waste Annual Report, detailing over 4,300 vehicles served at spring and fall cleanup events, more than 520 tons (over one million pounds) of trash collected, 43 tons of tires, 28 tons of electronics, and approximately 100 tons of scrap metal recycled. The voucher program generated 670 vouchers with a 54% redemption rate, and 2,189 residents participated in the regional household hazardous waste event. Abrams also reported 20,000 pounds of electronics collected through reboot bins, 201 Christmas trees recycled for fish habitat, 2,000 roadside litter bags collected (about 40,000 pounds), 140 tires removed, and 52% of county roads covered through litter abatement efforts. She announced upcoming 2026 events, including the April 11 pop-up household hazardous waste collection at Frederick’s Landing in Wilder and May 8–9 spring cleanup days.

Fiscal Court approved several measures related to financing the new public safety facility, including Resolution R-12-26 establishing intent to reimburse capital expenditures from potential future tax-exempt bond proceeds, authorization to engage FBT Gibbons LLP (formerly Frost Brown Todd) as bond counsel, and approval of an agreement with RSA Advisors as municipal financial advisor—each contingent upon any future bond issuance. Personnel actions included accepting the resignation of Animal Technician Kaya Hill, authorizing recruitment for the vacancy, entering executive session under KRS 61.810(1)(f), and upon return approving the termination of Kennel Technician Jade King and authorizing recruitment for that position. Additional business included approval to solicit bids for FY2027 solid waste trash and recycling services, approval of budget transfers and interfund transfers dated February 28, 2026, and approval of claims, with one commissioner recusing from employee benefit-related claims.
