AN ACT relating to public protection.

This bill amends Kentucky law to improve transparency for regional wastewater commissions by requiring them to publicly display financial records on a searchable website. The updated records must include details such as payee names, expenditure amounts, budget information, and audit results, with updates required at least monthly and retention for three years. Additionally, the bill mandates that these commissions register with the Department for Local Government and comply with existing state financial reporting requirements. This change directly affects regional wastewater commissions and their commissioners, who must now make their spending information more accessible to the public.
