Governor Beshear Comes To Pikeville With A Check
It's always good to see Governor Steve Beshear in Pike County, but it's especially good when he comes bearing money. Thursday the Governor presented the Pike County Fiscal Court with a check for $92,000. The funds come from a Homeland Security grant to be used for mobile data computers for use by fourteen fire districts in Pike County. This high-tech equipment will significantly reduce response time for first responders, sometimes making the difference between life and death. The Governor pointed out the importance of this state-of-the-art technology. Beshear also indicated he was contacting the Kentucky Congressional Delegation to offer his support for the proposed ethanol plant in Kentucky.
