The members of the fiscal court of a county shall be, and they are hereby
designated as, and empowered to act as, ex officio the air pollution control
board of the air pollution control district in such county.
All county officers, their assistants, clerks, deputies, and employees, and all
other county employees shall be ex officio officers, assistants, deputies, clerks,
and employees respectively of the air pollution control district in the county in
which they are employed. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, they
shall perform respectively the same various duties for the air pollution control
district as for the county without additional compensation, in order to carry out
the provisions of this chapter.
The provisions of subsections (1) and (2) of this section shall not be applicable
to any county containing a city of the first or second class or a consolidated
local government.
Notwithstanding any provision of this chapter to the contrary, whenever a city
of the first class and a county containing such city have in effect a compact
under KRS 79.310 to 79.330, the county shall provide all staff support,
including a secretary-treasurer and an air pollution control officer, to the air
pollution control board through county officers, assistants, clerks, deputies and
employees. In such case, the staff of the air pollution control board, including
the secretary-treasurer and the air pollution control officer, shall be deemed
county employees and shall be subject to the control of fiscal court. At the time
the compact takes effect, the employees of the air pollution control district shall
be transferred to the service of the county government; provided that all such
employees who are in the classified service at such time shall be continued in
the classified service administered by county government. Upon the
establishment of a consolidated local government in a county where a city of
the first class and a county containing that city have had in effect a cooperative
compact pursuant to KRS 79.310 to 79.330, the employees of an air pollution
control district shall be deemed to be employees of the consolidated local
government and the provisions of this subsection shall be applied to the
consolidated local government.
