Sunday Farm Stands and Evening Cooking Classes
Radcliff, KY · September 27, 2026
The morning air carries a sharp autumn bite, but clear blue skies make today prime for scouring local farm stands or hitting the driving range.
The Lead
Hardin County Fiscal Court has approved the first reading of an ordinance instituting a temporary moratorium on zoning changes and conditional use permits for commercial data centers. Magistrates representing northern Hardin County requested the pause to allow county planners sufficient time to evaluate local infrastructure demands and draft clear regulatory standards before large-scale operators seek development permits. Public officials pointed to substantial energy loads, industrial cooling water needs, and noise buffers near residential boundaries as critical considerations for growing corridors near Radcliff and Vine Grove. Rather than trying to establish retroactive rules after developers assemble land parcels, the county intends to create comprehensive zoning definitions for hyperscale facilities from the start. Residents can discuss infrastructure and zoning concerns directly with officials during a countywide town hall meeting this Tuesday evening in Elizabethtown, leading up to a second fiscal court vote on October 13.
