January 2018 Legislative Update

1/29/2018

 
The 2018 Regular Session of the KY Legislature convened on January 2 in Frankfort.

So far, legislators have introduced 547 bills, including many relevant to planning and zoning.  Please click here for a detailed listing summarizing those.  

There are a few bills already that are of interest and/or have the potential for significant impact on planning issues, such as:
  • HB   45   Relating to electric and hybrid vehicle fees (Assigned to the Transportation Committee) -- http://www.lrc.ky.gov/record/18RS/HB45.htm 
  • HB   54 Relating to historical preservation (Assigned to the State Government Committee) -- http://www.lrc.ky.gov/record/18RS/HB54.htm 
  • HB 138  Relating to boards of adjustment (Assigned to the Local Government Committee) -- http://www.lrc.ky.gov/record/18RS/HB138.htm 
  • HB 186  Relating to taxing districts (Assigned to the Local Government Committee) -- http://www.lrc.ky.gov/record/18RS/HB186.htm 
  • SB    97  Relating to Municipal Annexation (Assigned to the State & Local Government Committee) -- http://www.lrc.ky.gov/record/18RS/SB97.htm 

We welcome your feedback on these bills in particular, as well as on the bills listed here, especially if any of them affect your jurisdiction.  If you are aware of any bill not listed that you feel is important for us to track, please let us know.

We would like to generate some discussion among the membership to determine whether there are any bills on which the KY Chapter should consider taking a position or whether there are any bills of interest that we would consider encouraging members to contact their legislators about.  

Please email Kristan Curry (kcurry@lexingtonky.gov) or Parker Sherwood (psherwood@lexingtonky.gov) if you would like to be added to our list and receive regular legislative updates.
