A young man survived a 40 foot fall from well-known local destination Lockegee Rock last Thursday evening.

Morehead Fire Chief Jeff Anderson said that emer-gency responders were dis-patched to the scene just after 6 p.m.

Morehead Fire Depart-ment technicians arrived quickly to find the young man and assessed his inju-ries. They were joined at the scene with Rowan County EMS and Rowan County Sheriff’s deputies.

“He was determined to be in critical condition and needed advanced care really fast,” Chief Anderson said.

Due to the young man’s height – he was six feet, six inches tall, according to An-

derson – a medical helicop-ter with special accommoda-tions was dispatched from Air Methods in Mt. Sterling and arrived near the scene.

The man had fallen while attempting to the jump the “Gator” on the side of Lock-egee and had fallen, Ander-son said.

He was quickly airlifted to the University of Kentucky Trauma Center when, ac-cording to Rowan County Judge Executive Harry Clark in a Facebook post, he was in surgery through the evening.

Judge Clark praised the quick response and exper-tise of local emergency crews in the same post.

Chief Anderson also ex-pressed his appreciation. “Everything just kind of fell into place. It was a win-win situation. There were no big hitches at the scene.”

6 news coronavirus cases in Gateway Health District as state moves toward reopening

The Gateway Health District has seen a few more positive coronavi-rus cases this past week, but the overall number of infected individuals remains low compared with other areas of the state.

The Gateway District Health Department re-ported a new positive case in Bath County on May 7, three new positive cases in Rowan County and another in Bath on May 9, and another now positive case in Bath County on May 10.

These are the first sets

of new cases reported in the Gateway District since April 24.

“This is the most cases we have had in one day but with the increase in testing it was to be ex-pected. It is only reveal-ing what was most likely already here,” the Dis-trict noted in an April 9 Facebook post.

The increase in test-ing capacity has come in part from the open avail-ability of drive-thru test-ing at St. Claire Medical Center in Morehead.

Gateway District Health Director Greg Brewer said on Tuesday that all new cases have been worked by his de-partment, infected indi-viduals have been iso-lated, and all contacts

have been notified and advised.

The overall total num-ber of cases in Gateway District is, at press time this week, 6 cases in Bath County; 0 cases, El-liott; 3 cases, Menifee; 1 case, Morgan; and 6 cas-es, Rowan.

One death has been at-tributed to the coronavi-rus in Bath County.

Total cases in sur-rounding counties also remain relatively low: Carter County, 6; Flem-ing, 1; Nicholas, 1; Mont-gomery, 11; Powell, 1; and Wolfe, 0.

The largest number of the cases in the state re-mains in Jefferson Coun-ty, 1691; Warren County, 573; Muhlenburg Coun-ty, 457; Kenton County,

401; and Fayette County, 392.

As the state’s reopen-ing of its businesses and economy continues over the next several weeks, Gov. Andy Beshear has encouraged, but not re-quired, individuals to wear masks in public places to help prevent the transmission of the coronavirus as more peo-ple begin to be around one another.

Businesses have the option of requiring cus-tomers to wear masks inside their facilities, as well as enforcing exist-ing social distancing and sanitary guidelines.

Here is the state’s phased economic reopen-ing schedule:

May 9 – Places of wor-

ship (by federal court or-der)

May 11 – Construc-tion, manufacturing and distribution, office-based businesses at 50 percent capacity, pet grooming and boarding, photogra-phy, vehicle dealerships, horse racing (no fans)

May 18 – Government offices

May 20 – Funeral homes, retail businesses

May 22 – Restaurants at 33 percent capacity

May 25 – Cosmetology/hair salons/barber shops, massage therapy, tan-ning salons, tattoo par-lors

June 1 – Bowling al-leys, fitness centers, movie theaters

June 11 – Camp-grounds

June 15 – Some child-care, youth sports (low touch and outdoors)

July 1 – Bars, groups of 50 people

Industry groups, trade associations, and indi-vidual businesses are asked to submit reopen-ing proposals to their lo-cal health departments.

Everyone is still en-couraged to practice frequent handwashing, avoid touching of the face, and to continue to social distance by at least six feet.

said that they began working three weeks ago with Gravity Diag-nostics, along with other medical providers across the state, to expand CO-VID-19 testing.

He said the following week that the state’s Public Health Com-missioner, Dr. Stephen Stack, had consulted with St. Claire’s medical staff and gave them au-thority to proceed with testing as they deemed necessary.

Testing was first made available to vulnerable populations, such as in group homes, rehab centers, drug treatment facilities, and nursing homes, which Dr. Meh-lan said made half of all the cases in the United States.

St. Claire then moved toward making the test available to the public at large for the region.

“If something is on your mind, anyone who wants a test can get one,” he said.

As of last Thursday, he

said that over 700 tests had been performed, with a turnaround time of 48 to 72 hours for re-sults.

He said they had so far only had a “handful of positive cases,” and they have worked closely with local health departments on those cases.

Positive cases of the COVID-19 coronavirus have remained relatively low across St. Claire’s service region, compared with other regions in the state.

Dr. Mehlan attributed that to several factors, including the fact that the region is rural and residents “do well with social distancing;” local school districts were will-ing to release in-person classes early; and More-head State University ended in-person classes after spring break.

“It’s old fashioned stuff, but it makes a huge difference,” he said.

Dr. Mehlan said that St. Claire could not made this effort alone and thanked Rowan County Judge-Executive Harry Clark as well as local company Rajant, which

helped to set up a bridge network in the parking lot for their data termi-nals.

This reporter volun-tarily took the COVID-19 test last Thursday. Hav-ing a swab inserted into both nostrils and touch-ing the back of his si-nuses was only briefly uncomfortable, and the entire testing session took less than five min-utes.

A result of “not detect-ed” was available almost exactly forty-eight hours later.

St. Claire Health also continues to serve its patients during the pan-demic.

Amy Riddle, Director of Public Relations at St. Claire, emphasized that their providers and ru-ral clinics in Frenchburg, Olive Hill, Owingsville, Morehead, and Sandy Hook are still seeing pa-tients.

She said that a popular option for many has been their curbside visits at their facilities and virtu-al visits. She encouraged patients to call ahead to inquire about these types of visits.

She also noted that they are fulling sanitiz-ing their facilities on a regular basis and using social distancing guide-lines.

“There’s never been a better time to see a doc-tor,” Riddle said.

Jaque ‘Qua’ Abrams, 24, of Elizabethtown, were indicted by members of a 2014 Rowan County Grand Jury.

The indictments came on the heels of an intense July 2, 2014 preliminary hearing in Rowan District Court, at the conclusion of which Rowan District Judge, Honorable William Roberts, found probable cause to have the charges bound over.

“A 20-year-old man who is asleep in his home and he is brutally murdered… These young men planned and carried out that mur-der,” Judge Roberts said at the conclusion of the hearing.

Veteran Kentucky State Police Detective Toby Gardner led the investi-gation into the murder of Otis and testified during that hearing.

Gardner said he had been called to 50 Rose Road, during the after-noon of June 22, 2014 in response to a home inva-sion in which Bo Otis, 20, had been shot in the back of the head.

The residence, a mo-bile home, is located in the small community of Clearfield, which is not far from Morehead.

Otis later died as a re-sult of that wound.

Through an exhaustive investigation, which was conducted by Gardner and several other KSP Officers, who received help from of-ficers with the Morehead Police Department and the Rowan County Sher-iff’s Department, the five suspects were charged.

Gardner testified that the investigation included recorded conversations,

taped interviews from the suspects, their friends and family members, and oth-ers.

A taped conversation made by Stewart’s girl-friend was an early key piece of evidence. In that conversation Stewart had given details about the shooting incident. When asked why his girlfriend would record the conver-sation, Gardner explained that she had believed that would be the phone call in which Stewart would tell her ‘he loved her.’

Gardner testified as to what that and a moun-tain of other evidence and statements indicated had occurred leading up to, and during, the June 22 inci-dent in which Otis would be mortally wounded and his residence robbed of $50 cash, a marijuana pipe commonly referred to as a ‘bong’ and a Play Station.

“I think there was a fight and then Bo Otis was shot in the back of the head at point blank range,” Gard-ner said following the hearing. And his thoughts

were more disturbing fol-lowing the incident when he said he believed, “Any-one in the home at the time of the robbery would have been killed.”

Commonwealth’s At-torney Ronnie Goldy, Jr., filed a notice in 2014 that he intended to seek the death penalty in all of the cases.

Abrams pleaded guilty in 2015 to the charges of murder, robbery, burglary, and evidence tampering and was sentenced to 30 years in jail.

As part of his plea agreement, he avoided the death penalty and agreed to testify against his co-de-fendants if the case went to trial.

Powell and Stewart were each sentenced in 2017 to a total of 20 years, plead-ing guilty to the charges of facilitation to murder, complicity to robbery, and complicity to burglary.

All persons are to be presumed innocent until proven guilty or pleading guilty.

ChArLotte Ann dArneLL Pennington

Charlotte Ann Darnell Pennington, age 80, of Oak Dale Drive, Clearfield, went to be with the Lord on Sun-day, May 3, 2020, at her home with her husband Mike by her side.

Born August 10, 1939, she was a daughter of the late Kenis and June Taylor Dar-nell. Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by a sister, Sue Whitaker, and two daughters, Vikki and Valerie Elswick.

On December 27, 1976, she was united in marriage to the Rev. Michael E. Pen-nington, her beloved hus-band of nearly 45 years. She is also survived by their precious daughter, An-drea Hope Pennington, and mother-in-law, Margaret Davidson, all of Clearfield.

Other survivors include a sister, Virgie Carter of W. Terre Haute, Indiana; a spe-cial niece, Allison Ward of Lexington; her best friend, Faye Lenning of Ashland; other relatives; dear friends; and church family.

Charlotte earned a bach-

elor’s degree with an em-phasis in early childhood education from Morehead State University and owned and operated Charlotte’s Daycare and Preschool for several years. She was a valued partner in her hus-band’s ministry in churches including Pleasant Val-ley First Church of God in Nicholas County, Fountain Park First Church of God in Richmond, Polksville First Church of God, Midland First Church of God, and Youngs Valley Community First Church of God, all in Bath County. Charlotte was the epitome of a virtu-ous woman. She loved ev-eryone equally; a person’s education or socio-economic standing was unimportant to her. She was a Chris-tian, a prayer warrior, and a dedicated and loving wife, mother, and friend. Char-lotte’s legacy will endure in those whose lives she touched here on earth. She will always be lovingly re-membered.

Due to the COVID-19 regulations set forth by the Governor, a private service will be held Wednesday, May 6, 2020, at Northcutt & Son Home for Funerals with Carolyn DeHoff and the Rev. Johnny Hatfield of-ficiating. Burial will follow at Forest Lawn Memorial Gardens with the Rev. Ben Furman officiating.

MAry eLLA (Moore) ALLey

It is with great sadness that the family of Mary Ella (Moore) Alley, age 80, announces her pass-ing on May 2, 2020 at El-mcroft of Xenia. She was born on July 20, 1939, in Isonville.

Mary was raised in Sandy Hook where her family owned a local grocery store, which she helped maintain. She enjoyed spending time with her friends, her various pets (including a duck) and playing guitar. Even after Mary moved to Xenia in 1960, she re-mained close to the peo-ple in Sandy Hook and even received their news-paper for many years.

Mary was a fabulous cake decorator. She de-voted many years to making people’s “special” day even better with her creations. She had such creativity and talent. We loved to lick the cake batter from the beaters (which may have led to some fights) and test her “scraps”. She enjoyed cooking and baking for

her family and whosever friend could eat the most was her favorite. Mary became a Nurse in 1985. She retired from Greene Hall, in Xenia in 2005, af-ter more than 25 years of employment. She formed many lasting friendships there and she enjoyed all of their social events to-gether. Mary was avid in antiquing and was proud of her treasures. Above all, Mary enjoyed being “Meme”.

She is preceded in death by her father, Wil-liam (Bud) Moore and her mother, Mary Belle (Smith) Moore. Mary will be lovingly remembered by her children, Mary “Aleta” (Bill Wheeler) Al-ley, William “Billy” (Mis-sy) Alley, Anna “Jeanne” (Chris) Washburn, her nine grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren, her dear friend, Marcie Yan-nekis and so many more friends and family.

Due to Covid-19 re-strictions there will have a private service at Mc-Colaugh Funeral Home in Xenia, Ohio. Burial services will proceed in Morehead, Kentucky, at Carey Cemetery. North-cutt & Son Home for Fu-nerals, 400 Fraley Drive, Morehead, KY 40351 is caring for arrangements.

theLMA ednA CruM trent

Thelma Edna Crum Trent, age 95, of West First Street, Morehead, went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, April 29, 2020, at the Life Care Center of Morehead.

Born February 9, 1925, in Rowan County, she was the daughter of the late Charles and Rosie Dehart Crum. In addition to her par-ents, she was preceded in death by a daughter, Eva Trent; an adopted son, Sidney Cox; one sister; Jewell Conn; and four brothers, Vencil, Willie, Oscar, and Holly Crum.

Thelma is survived by her loving husband of 79 years, Wales Scot-land Trent, whom she married March 3, 1941; two sons, Ted and Sha-ron Trent of Clearfield and Gary and Sally Trent of Morehead; six grandchildren, Kevin (Brandie) Trent, Tyler Trent, Jim Tom Trent, Mike (April) Trent, Joy (Pope) Cudd, and Kelly (Jesse) McHugh; five great grandchildren, Zoe, Braeden, Gabe and Garrison Trent and Jax-on Cudd; and long-time loyal and compassionate caregivers, Madge Plank and Susette Snipes.

Thelma was a loving wife, mother, grand-mother, and great grandmother who cherished her family. Known as a caring per-son, her influence ex-tended beyond the fami-

ly circle. Countless lives were influenced through her work as a cook at Daniel Boone Convales-cent Center and Rowan County Senior High School. She was a me-ticulous person who per-fected everyday tasks as a homemaker, caring for her own children and their children, as well as eagerly giving a helping hand to other relatives, neighbors and friends. Often those children, now adults, told Thelma the positive changes she had made in their lives. Thelma and Wales thor-oughly enjoyed hav-ing all the family and friends in their home, sharing good food and recalling the history of family and the region. She and Wales were gos-pel singers and proudly traveled with others to spread the word of God in song. A longtime member of the Church of God, her Christian walk on a daily basis and the importance of family will forever be a shining example and a treasured memory for family and dear friends. She will be lovingly re-membered.

Due to the COVID-19 regulations set forth by the Governor, a private service for immediate family will be held Sat-urday, May 2, 2020, at Northcutt & Son Home for Funerals with Pastor Gary Madden officiat-ing. Entombment will be in Forest Lawn Me-morial Gardens Mauso-leum.

In lieu of flowers, me-morial contributions are suggested to the Hope Pregnancy Center or a charity of one’s choice.

Tony White appointed to Kentucky State Corrections

CommissionGov. Andy Beshear has

appointed a Morehead man to a state correc-tions commission.

In a press release on Friday Gov. Beshear an-nounced the appointment of Henry Anthony White of Morehead to the Ken-tucky State Corrections Commission.

White is a national out-reach and engagement specialist at the Fletcher Group.

He replaces Barbara Ellerbrook, whose term expired. Mr. White shall serve for a term expiring Feb. 17, 2023.

The Commission is charged with award-ing all grant money to community corrections programs along with de-veloping and implement-ing a statewide strategic plan for the state and community corrections programs as well as other functions defined under statute.

It is also charged with providing oversight for the Prison Industry En-hancement Certification Program and services as the Parole Board Nomi-nating Committee.

We would like to ex-tend a warm welcome to the Rowan County News. We are very pleased that local news will be making a return to our community. As I’m sure you know by now, we unfortunately lost the Morehead News last month. We owe those folks, who are our friends and neighbors, a debt of gratitude for their time-tested com-mitment to bringing news to the people. We would also like to thank this new group for com-ing in and filling this great need in Rowan County. We wish them luck in their venture.

This type of collabora-tion is the currency of the future and our fight

against COVID-19. In a time where the country is more divided than ever, we have seen nothing but genuine cooperation across all boundaries in Rowan County. Since its founding in 1856, our great county has had a powerful way of coming together to weather any storm. When the going gets tough - we just get tougher. That’s a testa-ment to the character of our people.

We’ve had the full sup-port of our magistrates and city leaders in do-ing what is necessary to keep our people safe, and for that we are appre-ciative. From our com-munity leaders to our healthcare professionals and administrators, and everyone in between, I’d like to thank you for the excellent job you’ve done at keeping your people safe. Because of this cooperation, Rowan County has seen very encouraging outcomes so far as it relates to the pandemic.

This is a direct result of the tremendous job that each of you have done with social distanc-ing, and I can’t thank

you enough. We owe a debt of gratitude to those currently working and keeping the gears turn-ing on our local econo-my, and to those who are making the sacrifice of staying home. We look forward to seeing you return to work. Many of our businesses began to reopen earlier this week, more are scheduled to resume operations in the coming weeks, and that is because of you. Let’s all recommit to liv-ing our lives in the saf-est and most responsible way possible, so that we can continue to move forward – not backward.

Our Courthouse will also be tentatively re-opening to foot traffic on May 26 with rigorous social distancing and sanitization guidelines

in place for the safety of everyone. We will still be conducting busi-ness online or by phone where possible, but we look forward to serving you in person.

While we’re remain-ing #HealthyAtHome, we have a good oppor-tunity to fill out our Census Survey. Getting an accurate count will be important to our re-covery moving forward, because federal dollars always are allocated ac-cording to population. If you need help filling yours out or have ques-tions, call our office at 606-784-5151 and we’ll help you out.

Thank you again for your outstanding coop-eration during this time, and let’s keep moving forward.

Members of the More-head-Rowan County-Lakev-iew Heights Joint Planning Commission approved de-velopment plans on three properties during a video conferenced special called meeting last Wednesday that was also livestreamed on Facebook.

They approved a second reading of a final devel-opment plan for the con-struction of a Starbucks on Hampton Way, located near the I-64 exit on KY 32, con-tingent upon verification of certification by the More-head Utility Plant Board.

Members also approved a first reading of a prelimi-nary development plan for a 4-plex housing unit located on Kentucky Avenue, off KY 32 and Whitaker Avenue.

Josh Trent, represent-ing developer LSK Devel-opment, said that the plan includes a two-story struc-ture with four two-bedroom units on a 2.886-acre parcel.

City Building Inspector Randy Fouch noted that the property straddles both B2 and R1 zones.

Commission member Bill Shely questioned the con-venience of having to bring trash receptables 300 feet from the property to Whita-ker Avenue for pick-up.

Commissioners also ap-proved a first reading of another initial development plan for a 6-plex housing unit on Old Flemingsburg Road.

Trent said that this unit is located on .387-acre par-cel between two residences and would include a two story, six unit structure that would include a four one-bedroom units and two two-bedroom units, and an asphalt parking lot in front.

The current residential structure sitting on the property is slated to be cleared with the rest of lot.

Commissioners discussed runoff on the property and the building setbacks.

They also approved a first reading of a preliminary de-velopment plan for Phase II of Lockegee Estates.

The property, owned by Williams Developers, is lo-cated behind Save-A-Lot on KY 519, and Phase I of the development was not brought before the Com-mission because, under ordinance, only a third de-velopment on a single prop-erty must be brought for ap-proval.

The existing property, ac-cording to Trent, includes ten residences on Sandstone Circle and two duplexes. The Phase II plan includes four additional duplexes. Trent said that there are no plans to subdivide the prop-erty.

Commissioner member Edna Shack inquired if the proposed Triplett Valley Trail was located near this property. Fouch said that he was not sure yet.

Shely asked commis-sioner members to review suggested changes from Fouch to their Comprehen-sive Plan, which was sent to them all on April 29.

Fouch said throughout the meeting in discussion of all proposals that recent or-dinances concerning screen-ing levels between zones needed to be clarified.

Civil War operations in Fleming and Rowan County, June 1863

At the height of the American Civil War, Kentucky was a state ripped apart; with coun-ties, neighborhoods and families, divided. Loyalties with both the Union and Confederacy made Fleming and what would one day be Row-an County, a cauldron for conflict during that tumultuous time (1861-1865).

On June 15, 1863, 156 years ago, the cauldron boiled over with a dead-ly encounter between Fleming Counties loyal to both sides, which re-sulted in death, destruc-tion and long-standing animosity among the citizens of Fleming and Rowan County.

The western end of Fleming County, partic-ularly the communities of Ewing, Cowan, Eliza-ville and Nepton, were primarily allied with the Confederacy. The eastern end of the coun-ty, particularly the com-munities of Muses Mills, Plummer’s Landing and Plummer’s Mill, being allied with the Union, and the central part of the county, including Flemingsburg, being torn in between though the larger percentage of Flemingsburg residents were pro-Union.

During the month of June, 1863 a 250-man confederate force of General John Hunt Morgan, under the com-mands of Colonel Pete Everett and Captain

community

John Hunt Morgan

In this painting by Mort Kunstler called “Morgan’s Raiders,” General John Hunt Morgan inspects one of his Mounted Rifle Companies. Captain George Will Jackson, of Ewing, was the commander of Company B, Mounted Kentucky Rifles, which served under General Morgan. That company consisted almost completely of men from Fleming and Nicholas County who fought with Morgan against their own neighbors during the American Civil War, particularly at the Battle of Plummer’s Landing and the Battle of Triplett’s Creek Bridge.

George Will Jackson, raided through Ken-tucky with the mission of stealing Union sup-plies from Maysville.

Jackson was a native of the Ewing, area and was the leader of Com-pany B, 2nd Kentucky Mounted Rifles, which consisted of almost all Fleming County men from that same area of Fleming County. He was heavily involved in re-cruiting young men for the Confederate cause at the beginning of 1861 and at one time recruit-ed 90 Fleming County men at once to “ride to Dixie” with him. He suc-cessfully recruited more Confederate supporters in following years.

The daring June 1863 raid, from Lebanon, Vir-ginia led to a sharp skir-mish near Owingsville and later led to a com-plete success in raiding Maysville with a Union cannon being spiked and Everett and Jack-son’s men taking rifles and other equipment, along with several thou-sands of dollars in mer-chandise.

The Confederate force retreated from Maysville through Fleming County toward

Morehead, and stopped at Plummer’s Mill for food and supplies at Wayman Landsdowne’s store

Union Home Guard Captain, James Brown “JB” Evans, lived near Plummer’s Landing and Jackson no doubt knew this, and with a hand-picked group of men rode up Fox Creek to Landsdowne’s resi-dence, who was also suspected of being pro-Union. While there, one of Jackson’s men, named Sgt. Ford was shot from his horse by one of the Home Guards. Jackson ar-rested Landsdowne and burnt his home and barn.

Jackson and his men then spied Captain Ev-ans, his two sons: Nel-son and Franklin, and a Captain Curtis and Capt. Hambrick of the Kentucky 24th Infantry

Union force. Those men and a few others had rode down Fox Creek from Evans’s home to investigate the shoot-ing and the burning of Landsdowne’s home.

When the two groups saw one another, Ev-ans and his small group rode away through the woods with Jackson and his group giving chase. Both sides fired upon the other during the running pursuit. Frank Evans’ horse was injured and he fell or jumped from it and rolled into Stockton’s Creek and made his escape. Frank’s broth-er, Nelson, and Eddie Young broke from the main group of Home Guards and also made their escape, riding to-ward Belle Grove.

Captain Evans, Ham-brick and Curtis were killed, as was Home Guard, William Gard-

ner. The tragedy was in full view of the commu-nity and particularly Captain Evans’s home. His daughters were the first to reach their fall-en father though there was nothing they could do for him or the other casualties.

Jackson was admon-ished by the women and sensing more Home Guards from all around, retreated with no casualties back to Landsdowne’s store where Everett and the rest of the men were.

Union forces under the 10th and 14th Ken-tucky Infantry under Col. R. Maltby had pur-sued Everett and Jack-son from Maysville and came into view at about this time with another running battle that ex-tended from Plummer’s Mill out of Fleming County and into Rowan County, terminating

at the Triplett’s Creek Bridge, near Morehead.

Everett and Jackson’s men crossed the bridge and then burnt it with the 10th and 14th hot on their heels. Right at this moment, elements of a Union 8th Michigan Regiment, who were about 1,000 strong and under the leadership of Colonel DeCourcey, rode into the fray but mistook the Union 10th for Confederates and opened fire, with the 10th thinking the same thing and firing back. In the confusion, Everett and Jackson’s group es-caped after having 38 of their men captured.

In the wild carnage that followed, Captains Everett and Jackson led their Confederate raid-ers away from the scene and back to rejoin Gen-eral Morgan in Russell County, Virginia.

Never were the bat-tles as fierce throughout the American Civil War as when Kentuckians faced one another.

General Morgan would become famous for his raids, striking as far north as northern Ohio. He would be a fa-miliar sight in northeast Kentucky and almos t a year to the day of the Battle of Plummers Landing, Morgan rode through Flemingsburg following the second Battle of Cynthiana.

It was during that battle which Captain Jackson was captured by enemy forces.

Jackson would survive and return to Fleming County where he raised a large family.

Council members discuss $7.75 million dollar bondBy Melissa [email protected]

Morehead City Council members met on Monday night during a Zoom vir-tual meeting to approve the first reading of ordi-nances and future devel-opment along with PACE Funding.

Mayor Laura White-Brown presented coun-cil members with her Mayor’s report, and the Gus Macker Committee renewed their three year contract.

Morehead Fire Chief Jeff Anderson reported for the month of April there were 28 incidents within the city and 37 outside of the city.

The 911 facility proj-ect is still in the design phase. According to Bill Pickering, representative from CMW, he feels with even with the world not on schedule, that CMW is remains on schedule with the project.

They are estimating to go into the bidding phase around July or August. Due to the pandemic, there are concerns, with contractors being laid off; there would be a pos-sibility of a low turnout of candidates bidding for the project.

Council members Glen Teager expressed great concern of approving $7.75 million on the bond when previously the council approved $7 mil-lion.

Council members Da-vid Perkins added the previous approval was for the building itself, without any mechanicals and electrical.

The building estimate was submitted for $5.2 million, which does not include the site, nor the mechanicals or the elec-trical.

Teager continued to state he was not comfort-able with approving the bond increase and was asking for a breakdown of why there was a in-crease from $7 million to $7.75 million.

“I am not comfortable with voting on this with-out seeing the break-down,” Teager firmly stated.

Mayor White-Brown had provided council members with a break-down in January.

R. J. Palmer, with Compass Municipal Ad-visors, explained that the purpose of the amount in the ordinance is not what the city is borrowing.

Palmer stated, “That due to it all being esti-mates and with the lag of passing of the ordinance, with issuing debt for the city we don’t want to slow the process if we get bids that are higher than anticipated or something else that changes the cost. This is not what the amount being bor-rowed; whatever the fi-nal number that is sub-mitted is all that we are going to ask to borrow. “

Teager responded that the council approved the budget amount up $7.75 million during this month’s meeting;

when the budget was ap-proved for $7 million, it would leave the council of no ability to question the amount when the bids come in higher.

Palmer stated there was not going to be debt issued without the ap-proval of the Mayor.

Mayor White-Brown stated the number that was projected three or four years ago was not an accurate number but was a number pulled from the air based on what the council could afford.

The city has budgeted the $7 million for the project for the past two years.

The budget committee has continued to meet, and Mayor Brown in-cluded information on putting money in the Morehead-Rowan Coun-ty Fund Small Business Grant.

There a special called meeting held in March/April to discuss placing money in the fund to help small businesses with a grant.

The $35,000 amount discussed in the commit-tee came from what they were willing to spend on a new stage downtown.

Mayor White-Brown asked for the council to amend the $35,000, which was prioritized previously for the stage downtown, for the small businesses grant. This would be available through an application process with stipula-tions, including busi-nesses that have been active for more than 12 months which have been impacted by COVID 19, have a number of em-ployees, and within the city limits. The busi-ness would be asked to submit a budget of how it was impacted by the pandemic and to sub-mit a detailed budget of how they plan to use the funds.

Mayor White-Brown stated the council had previously expressed for small businesses, and this would be an oppor-tunity to do so.

Council member Tom Carew, asked who was on the Community Fund committee, along when fund was started. This fund was originated by Dan Markell and Wes Holland. Committee members are Jane Hig-gins, Ryan Neth, Betty Cutts, Gay Brown, and Ashley Adkins.

Mayor White-Brown also touched on the fur-loughed employees, stat-ing they would return to work on May 18th.

With the Governor’s recommendations re-garding possibly some youth sports being eli-gible to play in the sum-mer, the city is looking at some softball and baseball around mid-Ju-ly. There are currently no plans for T-Ball, soc-cer, football right now, there will be a limit on spectators, and teams will not be allowed to sit in the dug outs together.

“There is a lot of plan-ning to do, so those fur-loughed employees will be coming to back to

start planning,” said Mayor White-Brown.

The city’s splash pad will not be open at all this year unless the state’s guidance chang-es.

With having to fur-lough some employees the city had a savings as of Monday for park and recreation of $17,000 from those employees, and the summer employ-ees was an additional $25,000.

Council member Tea-ger stated that he is not in the mindset to allot money for the stage for the community fund but wouldn’t be opposed to take the money saved from the furloughed em-ployees to place in the community fund for the small businesses. Coun-cil Mike Kash agreed with Teager, but Mayor White-Brown disagreed with them and stated that she is not comfort-able allocating money for the stage when they do not know when or if ever it would be used.

Neal Morgan dis-cussed the PACE Equity Funding, which allows private lenders to use real estate assessment to fund development projects. In Kentucky it is fairly new, several other cities and coun-ties are doing it. The city doesn’t spend any money to do it; it’s a no cost project to do some development.

Mayor White-Brown stated after doing fur-ther investigation that there is a great deal of legal work, and PACE Funding is for energy projects for business, such as if they wanted to upgrade to solar en-ergy, the PACE Fund-ing would be a source for lending money.

The city would have to be aware if the proj-ect failed, the city would have to file for closure of the project. The only cost to the city would be the legal fees; some other cities have stated they have around 10 -15 hours of legal fees as a cost.

Jason Slone, Chamber President, stated that the PACE Funding looks great but needed to be able to get more infor-mation for both the City and County to make the best decision for the community Rowan and Morehead.

The developer would be responsible for the as-sessment.

Council member Tea-ger stated that not many developers would take advantage of this but the $15 million dollar hotel the city has been work-ing on might be inter-ested in PACE Funding.

Mayor White-Brown and Judge Executive Harry Clark are both researching PACE fund-ing to help better serve Morehead/Rowan Coun-ty.

The Rowan County News will continue to follow up on some of these matters discussed at this month’s Council meeting.
