Legislative Research Commission Note (2/15/91). The prior reference to KRS
396.025 near the beginning of this statute was the result of an apparent
inadvertent transposition of digits in codifying. See 1988 Ky. Acts Ch. 90, 30
and 26. Pursuant to KRS 7.136, the text of this statute has been corrected to
reflect the appropriate cross reference to KRS 396.205.
Note: 1980 Ky. Acts ch. 396, sec. 141 would have amended this section effective
July 1, 1982. However, 1980 Ky. Acts ch. 396 was repealed by 1982 Ky. Acts
