Emergency Spending Increase, Possible New Crossville Sign

During the Village of Crossville board meeting, all but two agreed to increase the Mayor’s emergency spending for the Village. Mayor Kuykendall explained that the water department’s telemetry computer, which monitors the tower levels and pump activity, had crashed. That discussion prompted the Mayor to revisit the existing $750 mayoral spending limit and the difficulty of convening a special meeting quickly for urgent operational needs. Derek Spicer agreed and gave an example: if a pump needed to be replaced, which costs roughly $8,000-$9,000, a special meeting to approve that spending would be costly.

Coach Brittany Buell-Schneider said the chant was unplanned and started by the girls themselves.

Under Kentucky law, public school students can voluntarily pray and share religious or political viewpoints in assignments, speech, literature and clothing, provided they don’t disrupt or coerce others. Driver said district and school leaders will review policies on
