U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development Kentucky State Director Travis T. Burton and U.S. Congressman Hal Rogers today announced USDA is investing $39,900 in Johnson County.
“Those who live, work, and play in Johnson County should have the same level of public services as those who live in more suburban and urban areas of the Commonwealth,” said Burton. “Thanks to the leadership of President Trump and Secretary Rollins, USDA Rural Development is proud to partner with the fiscal court in an effort to get two additional vehicles on the road to help keep the county safe.”
The fiscal court will use the grant to purchase and equip two vehicles for the sheriff’s office.
During fiscal year 2025, USDA Rural Development invested over $141 million in Community Facilities projects across the commonwealth.
USDA Rural Development’s Community Facilities Programs help develop or improve essential public services and facilities in communities across rural America. For more information about these programs, visit the program page on our website.
