COMMUNITY NEWS

  • Homelessness is rising nationally and in Kentucky, and Owensboro is reported to have between 80 and 120 individuals counted in the annual Point-in-Time survey. Local leaders and service providers say that shortages of affordable housing—along with hidden populations not captured in counts—demand urgent community help.  The Owensboro Times

ENVIRONMENT NEWS

  • Owensboro has received an $84,303 federal grant to boost its urban tree canopy in underserved neighborhoods.
