2020 water management planning councils shall be established for each
county with the assistance of the appropriate area development district. Two
(2) or more counties may form a multicounty 2020 water management planning
council. The planning councils shall, as a minimum, be comprised of the
following:
(a) Each county judge-executive or mayor of an urban-county government, or
his or her authorized representative;
(b) One (1) representative selected by each community public water system,
as defined in 401 KAR 8:010 sec. 1(71)(a), that provides water to persons
in the county;
(c) One (1) representative selected by a local health department in the
county; and
(d) One (1) representative selected by each first, second, third, or fourth
class city that is not a water supplier or distributor, unless that city
chooses to be represented by another member of the planning council.
If, after the 2020 water management planning council appointments have been
made, a county judge/executive or mayor of an urban-county government
determines that any areas of the county or urban county government remain
unrepresented on the planning council, the county judge/executive or mayor of
the urban-county government may appoint an individual to represent that area.
The county judge/executive or mayor of an urban-county government or the
county judge/executive or the mayor's designated representative shall serve as
the chair of the 2020 water management planning council of which either the
county judge/executive or the mayor is a member.
Members of the 2020 water management planning councils shall serve without
pay but may be reimbursed by counties or appointing agencies for reasonable
expenses incurred to carry out the work of the councils.
The area development districts shall develop a forum for the chairpersons of
the 2020 water management planning councils or multicounty planning
councils to meet on at least a quarterly basis for the purpose of developing
regional service strategies consistent with the findings and purpose set out in
KRS 224A.300.
