All contracts, bonds, franchises, and other obligations of a participating city and
the county in existence on the effective date of a charter county government,
including but not limited to collective bargaining agreements, shall continue in
force and effect as obligations of the charter county government for the term of
those contracts, bonds, franchises, and other obligations.
The charter county government shall succeed to all rights and entitlements of
these contracts, bonds, franchises, and other obligations.
All conflicts in the provisions of the contracts, bonds, franchises, and other
obligations shall be resolved in a manner that does not impair the rights of any
of the parties.
Nothing in KRS 67.825 to 67.875 shall be construed to nullify a participating
city's petition pursuant to KRS 345.010 to be included under KRS Chapter 345
for collective bargaining with firefighters. Nothing in KRS 67.825 to 67.875 shall
be construed to nullify any other legal obligations requiring the continuance of
collective bargaining with a county's or participating city's employees. To the
extent required by KRS Chapter 345 or any other legal obligation requiring the
continuance of collective bargaining, the charter county government shall
continue to bargain collectively with those employees who were covered under
a contract with the county or participating city at the time of the formation of the
charter county government.
