The coronavirus has affected nearly everyone, and local
governments are probably no different. WJRS Local News has reached
out to the City Clerks in both Jamestown and Russell Springs, as well as the
County Treasurer, to get their perspectives on how the virus, the public health
requirements, and the closing of businesses has affected or will affect our
local governments.
Do our local governments expect a significant change in tax
revenues, since all three rely to some degree on the occupational
tax? Will the operating budgets of our local governments be
affected and, if so, in what ways and how soon?
Join WJRS Local News starting tomorrow as we talk with Jamestown
City Clerk Tyler McGowan, Russell Springs City Clerk Chris Ramsey, and County
Treasurer Kim Fenske…….as we take a look at “the Coronavirus pandemic and what
It Means for Local Governments” here on WJRS Local
