Adair Fiscal Court Special Meeting August 28, 2006 report Court opts for lower compensating county tax rate; awards mowing contract to only bidder, Springfield's John T. King Contract Mowing; City Gas gets easement for natural gas lines in Country Green Subdivision Photo follows this story By Ed Waggener The Adair County Fiscal Court passed a compensating tax rate for 2006, the lower of two options presented them, at a special called meeting Monday, August 28, 2006. Second District Magistrate Wid Harris presided at the meeting in the absence of Judge Jerry Vaughan, who was in Nevada on county business. Deputy Judge Gale Cowan was absent because of the death of her grandfather, A.Z. Burris. The court has the option of a maximum 4% increase in rates, or the compensating rate. On a motion by Fourth District Magistrate J.M. Shelley, seconded by First District Magistrate Roger Stephens, the magistrates voted 6-0 to adopt the lower rate. Shelley and Stephens were joined by Wid Harris, Fifth District Magistrate Billy Dean Coffey, Sixth District Magistrate Joe Rogers, and Seventh District Magistrate Terry Farris in a roll call vote. Third District Magistrate Tony Loy was absent. The compensating rate of 8.9 for real estate will yield a projected $407,597, versus a projected yield of $421,336 had the 4% raise of 9.2 been adopted. Here's how the options compared: Taxable class/Compensating rate/4% increase option Real Property: Compensating rate 8.90 / 4% increase 9.20 Tang./Personal Property: Compensating rate 16.62 / 4% increase 17.18 Motor Vehicle: Compensating rate 11.20 / 4% increase 11.20 Watercraft: Compensating rate 8.90 / 4% increase 9.20 Mowing contract award to only bidder The magistrates voted 5-0, with Terry Farris abstaining, to accept the bid of John T. King Contract Mowing, Springfield, KY, for the September mowing cycle on Adair County Roads. The bid was for $52.50 per hour per tractor and 10 ft. Bushhog. The motion to accept the bid by made by J.M. Shelley, seconded by Roger Stephens. County votes to allow gas easements in Country Green Subdivision With Columbia City Utilities Superintendent Joe Hare present, the court voted unanimously to grant a request for "permission to install low pressure natural gas lines in Country Green Subdivision on the street right-of-way." In the letter requesting the easement, Mr. Hare wrote, "This easement request if for present and future expansion of our system. Only a small portion is in the current phase of our expansion plans." Country Green Subdivision is located on the north side of the Edmonton Road. The entrance is approximately one-quarter of a mile from the intersection of the Edmonton Road and Burkesville Road.
