67A.872 Authorization to construct and maintain wastewater collection projects.
The General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Kentucky finds and determines as a fact
that in urbanized areas of the Commonwealth, where industrialization and
commercialization have progressed at a high rate, attended by rapid residential
development, there is a particular public need for acquisition of major wastewater
collection projects in the interests of the health, safety and welfare of the general public
residing in such areas and in order to enable metropolitan population centers to plan and
develop major community-wide sewer facilities; that it is therefore essential that urbancounty governments be vested with alternative authority for the construction and
installation of facilities for the collection of flowable liquid wastes generated by
residential, commercial and industrial uses for ultimate disposition in a proper manner at
the cost of benefited properties; and that such urban-county governments be authorized
and empowered to directly plan, develop, initiate, finance and carry out wastewater
collection projects.
