Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Hardin County public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
ADA Website Compliance Software
The county bought Siteimprove software to get its website ADA-compliant by the federal deadline — part transparency for residents with disabilities, part avoiding compliance trouble.
TRACERS Search and Rescue Grant
The county's volunteer rope-and-cave rescue team, TRACERS, landed a ~$2,700 state grant to replace aging gear — and it costs the county nothing since it's a pass-through.
Closure of Spurrier Alley in White Mills
A 168-foot strip of undeveloped alley — really just part of a property owner's yard — was officially closed, merging eight lots into one. It never was a usable road and portions nearby were closed back in 2006.
Detention center inmates serve the community
Detention Center inmates logged 11,536 work hours in July — cleaning 118 miles of roadside and completing a Lincoln Elementary workout project that's already being used by schoolchildren and inspiring future projects.
