Oldham County Fiscal Court October 20th 2026

Oldham County Fiscal Court meeting, October 20, 2026 (date identified from the meeting title; the metadata timestamp is October 21). The court approved surplus disposal of vehicles and road equipment, including police vehicles and a GMC dump truck, and approved a contract with Timberlake Auction Services to conduct an auction at the Road Department’s 4 Quality Place location. Members asked why the vehicles had accumulated and how they would be prepared for sale; staff said marked police vehicles would not be sold with their markings intact. The court also heard an initial presentation on GovWorks’ Comm’s Coach dispatch quality-assurance service. The dispatch director said he had requested $15,000 in the budget for researching providers, but the transcript is interrupted before the proposal’s terms or any court action are recorded. Budget transfers were approved, though the figures in the transcript are too garbled to report reliably.

The court approved a zoning map amendment from C2 to C3 for a proposed woodworking and contractor-shop use by a 6–1 vote; discussion noted that future uses would remain subject to planning review. Public comments focused on a proposed 94-unit apartment development in La Grange, including concerns about traffic, drainage, fire access, and the county’s limited authority over the city’s review process; no county procurement action was taken on that issue. The court also approved a Road Department equipment-operator hire at $22 per hour, which was a personnel action rather than a procurement decision.
