  • City Occupational Tax

    City officials say they aren't sure yet how much the City's occupational tax will bring in each year. And as a result, Campbellsville Mayor Brenda Allen says, the City is watching its budget carefully.

    Campbellsville City Council members voted 5-4 last June to enact a 1 percent occupational tax. The move came after the City and County, which had been splitting a Countywide 1 percent occupational tax, went separate ways. The new tax went into effect July 1.

  • Kudos to City, County road crews

    Kudos to workers in the City and County road departments for their long, tiring hours of work during the recent snowstorm.

    While the rest of us were snug in our warm homes, they were out in the cold, salting and scraping the roads so we could get where we needed to go.

    Snow fell last Friday night nearly as fast as they could clear it, yet roads were still passable on Saturday.

    We appreciate your hard work!
