Ann says meeting Today, 18 Sep 14 to tackle road money issues There are still more questions than answers about the bizarre 'Press Conference' roads fund episode. Fully half of projects - 3 of 6 - proposed by the "Press Conference" group failed to meet minimum need guidelines set by Rural Highway Department, itself. Now with winter approaching, there's a scramble to come up with a new set of roads, and a meeting is scheduled in Judge Melton's office to try straighten out a mess. Why the Kentucky Rural Highway Department politicized road money due Adair County remains unclear, but it is becoming more and more clear that the process ill served the otherwise squeaky clean administration of Gov. Steve Beshear. For Adair County, the diversion could mean a season's delay for some badly needed road work. - EW By Ed Waggener Adair County Judge Ann Melton said Wednesday evening that she has scheduled a meeting in the her office with two members of Adair Fiscal Court, Magistrate Sammy Baker District 3, and Magistrate Joe Rogers (6); and Rep. Bam Carney (KY 51, Taylor and Adair Counties), of Campbellsville, KY, to try to put together a list of qualifying roads after three of the six roads Rep. Carney and his group hobbled together did not meet needs assessment guidelines. That assessment, a prequesite for a Memorandum of understanding, did not come until after Rep. Carney presented his plan to Adair County Fiscal Court. These roads recommended by Bam Carney and his group simply don't qualify for repairs under the Kentucky Highway Department's own guidelines. Roads must have at least a "6" on scale of "10" to qualify.
