📰 News we're reading
• 06-25-2026 Website Ad Home Str & Graves Ave Street Improvements Project (erlangerky.gov) — Erlanger is seeking contractor bids this month for major street improvements on Home Street and Graves Avenue, with sealed bids due June 25 at City Hall. Qualified, KYTC‑prequalified contractors must purchase bid documents from Viox & Viox and provide bid bonds and full construction security. Local firms interested in work on these neighborhood roads should act quickly. 
• Kentuckians could soon see higher prices at gas pumps due to fight over tax break (local12.com) — Erlanger has opted into Gov. Andy Beshear’s temporary 10‑cent gas tax cut, meaning local drivers should see lower prices at the pump through June 30 unless the policy changes. A political clash between the governor and Republican lawmakers could shrink how many Kentucky communities keep the break, but Northern Kentucky cities like Erlanger, Covington, and Alexandria are currently included.
• UofL Health, southern Indiana hospitals among list of facilities Trump is warning over price transparency (wdrb.com) — Sun Behavioral Health in Erlanger is among several Kentucky and Indiana hospitals warned by the Trump administration to improve price transparency or face fines up to $2 million a year. Federal officials say patients and employers are overpaying because they can’t easily see prices for tests and treatments, and Erlanger’s behavioral health facility must now submit a corrective plan.
