On Thursday, May 14, 2026, the City of Columbia, along with the Adair County Fiscal Court, and the Columbia-Adair County Chamber of Commerce were pleased to host Representative Amy Neighbors and Senator Max Wise for a legislative update session at the historic Trabue-Russell House in Columbia.
At the session they spoke about the work that has been done in Frankfort over the past few months while the Legislature was meeting.
Specific recognition was given to the $184,000, which had been designated in the State Budget for improvements at the Trabue-Russell House.
Other recognition was also given to Rice Drive, Watson Street, and Burkesville Loop, all of which are City Street projects that will receive state funding.
