This resolution gives the Office of State Budget Director permission to release a portion of funds that have already been set aside for a program helping water and wastewater systems in Kentucky that are financially struggling. It does not create new spending but unlocks money that was previously approved in the state budget. The resolution has been passed over a gubernatorial veto by the legislature. Who it may affect: communities and local utilities, particularly in economically distressed areas, that rely on state assistance to maintain or improve water and wastewater infrastructure.
