Campbellsville University and Town Hall Productions will present "Fiddler on the Roof" starting today, Thursday, July 3, and continuing through Sunday at Russ Mobley Theater on the CU campus.

County signs contract to buy...

 It's official, the county now owns six acres of land for future development.

But even though magistrates agreed to the purchase nearly two months ago, it still hasn't been made public what will be done with the property.

Roots served as 5th District magistrate for more than 30 years.

Magistrates discuss changing...

County residents could soon no longer be required to have their roads blacktopped in order for the county to maintain them.
Now, residents wanting the county to maintain their roads must submit a request and then abide by several requirements, one being that the road is blacktopped.
However, on Monday, at a meeting of Taylor County Fiscal Court’s Transportation Committee, magistrates discussed how that requirement essentially eliminates some roads from ever being accepted into the county road maintenance system, because the cost to blacktop roads is high.
