The Greenup County Fiscal Court held its regularly scheduled meeting on Wednesday in Greenup. On the agenda were items including standard court business such as approving minutes from the last meeting and paying bills. Among the bills discussed were those submitted by the Greenup County Fair, based upon an amount of $50,000 granted by the Fiscal Court.
The Court accepted bills that covered the replacement of worn and outdated bleacher seating, repairs to the show barn and a walkway to the bleachers. The Greenup County Fair also received additional water lines and water taps that were donated by the City of Greenup, and new fencing was ordered.

The Greenup County Fiscal Court met for its regular meeting in April to discuss both old and new business.
Old business consisted mainly of paying bills, and new business included a proposal by County Judge-Executive Robert Carpenter of establishing a fund with a portion of the money the county received through sale of the Bellefonte Pavilion property.
Carpenter initially proposed that $1 million be set back in a fund accessible to the Industrial Development Authority to be used to help new businesses set up on the Industrial Parkway.
The nominated John McGinnis, Chairman of the Industrial Development Authority, said the first thing that should be done is to determine the locations available.
