In the coming weeks the Cynthiana City Commission-ordered management audit will get under way.
Safety Commissioner Gary Brunker told commissioners Tuesday night at their regular meeting that he had been contacted by the University of Louisville’s Southern Police Institute regarding documents that are needed to get started.

With all of the unfortunate incidents that have taken place recently, I began to think of a very important thing just the other day.
Legacy.
When we are younger, which I claim to still be at only 26 years old, we never give the term “legacy” any thought for the most part.
Why would anyone ever think how they want someone to remember them when they are still at a young age?
Well until here recent, I was in the same boat.
I always put off the task of starting my legacy till tomorrow.
