Now, Christian County, Todd County and Trigg County are in the midst of their own far-reaching changes regarding the information highway in what’s unfurling as a $30 million-plus project for broadband infrastructure through conjunctive efforts from Pennyrile Electric and Hopkinsville Electric System and Energy Net.

Christian Fiscal Court met Tuesday morning for a regular meeting to approve a lease agreement to purchase several vehicles for the Christian County Sheriffâs Office, approve the renewal of the countyâs health insurance plan for Fiscal Year 2021-22 as well as discuss the countyâs vaccination rates.
Following the Fiscal Courtâs official business, Judge-Executive Steve Tribble shared with the court why he believes Christian County continues to be at the bottom of the governorâs office list for vaccination rates.
Tribble shared that a report he had seen last week reflected that Christian County was at 17% vaccination rate and appeared last on the governorâs office list.
