AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Election Oversight: Pulaski County’s election commission voted 2-1 to deny federal monitors access inside polling places, following a similar decision in Washington County. Monitors may observe from at least 100 feet away as early voting continues ahead of Tuesday’s election. County Accountability: A payment scam sent about $1.9 million intended for Pulaski County’s jail medical provider to a fraudulent account after county staff failed to verify changed banking details. The FBI has been notified. Data Center Rules: Van Buren unanimously adopted new zoning requirements for data centers, including noise studies, mitigation plans and a 1,000-foot setback from residential-zoned areas.
