LEBANON JUNCTION – If you wish to sell fireworks in one Bullitt County city, expect to pay a higher fee. The Lebanon Junction City Council heard the first reading to amend its business license ordinance. The fee to have a temporary fireworks stand in Lebanon Junction would increase from $100 to $1,000. However, $900 of the new price would go to the fire department’s public education program. City attorney Hayden Sweat said the amended ordinance was patterned after Shepherdsville’s regulations.
LEBANON JUNCTION — As the rules get a bit more clear on how government agencies can spend federal American Rescue Plan Act funds, actual projects are starting to be announced. The Lebanon Junction City Council has around $500,000 overall to spend. The money will be sent in staggered payments. In amending its current budget to reflect the additional revenue and expenditures, Lebanon Junction looks to spend its first half of funding on a variety of projects.
