Lawmakers looking at efforts to study state's special districts
State lawmakers heard
about the State Auditor
of Public Accounts' ef-
forts to examine special
districts that levy taxes
or fees in hopes of boost-
ing the accountability of
those entities during last
week's meeting of the In-
terim Joint Committee on
• Local Government.
By the end of this year,
State Auditor Adam Edel-
en said his office should
have an inventory of just
how many special dis-
tricts there are in the state
(he estimates there could
be as many as 1,800) and
how much tax revenue
these special districts--
which may provide fund-
ing for services like fire
protection, public health,
library services, flood
control, etc.--handle
.each year. The informa-
tion will be then placed
online to make the dis-
tricts more accountable
to the public, Edelen said.
The information gath-
ered by the State Audi-
tor's office will also be
used to make recom-
mendations for possible
legislative action during
the 2012 Regular Session
of the Kentucky General
Assembly, Edelen said.
Interim Joint Committee
on Local Government Co-
Chair Sen. Damon Thay-
er, R-Georgetown, said he
plans to sponsor legisla-
tion concerning special
districts for consideration
in 2013.
Thayer said his com-
mittee and the State Audi-
tor's office are continuing
a dialogue that, as Edelen
commented, will help
"separate the wheat from
the chaff' as far as special
districts are concerned.
"The taxpayers are now
focused on this and, first
of all, I would say to the
employees and board
members of the special
districts exactly what the
Auditor said at the begin-
ning (of this meeting): If
rou are doing your job
appropriately and being
good stewards of the tax-
payers' money, you have
nothing to fear from the
Auditor's effort, or any
legislation that this Gen-
eral Assembly may con-
sider," Thayer said.
It was just a few months
ago that the 2012 Ken-
tucky General Assembly
passed House Concur-
rent Resolution 53, spon-
sored by Rep. Reginald
Meeks, D-Louisville, and
Interim Joint Committee
an Local Government Co-
Chair Rep. Steve Riggs,
D-Louisville. That legis-
lation directs the Interim
loint Committee on Lo-
cal Government to study
special districts during
the 2012 legislative in-
terim, which ends this
December. The resolu-
tion was adopted follow-
hag recent government
and quasi-governmental
agency audits conducted
by Edelen's office.
Edelen told the commit-
tee that his office thinks
Kentucky has between
1,000 and 1,800 special
districts with total tax
revenue of $500,000 to $1
billion passing through
those districts annually.
"Based on those as-
sumptions, you'd have
$100 million in taxpayer
money floating through
a system every year in
a way in which the tax-
payers can't properly ac-
count for (it)," he told
lawmakers.
Once the inventory is
complete, Edelen said
state lawmakers and all
Kentucky taxpayers will
know moreabout what
he called the "most preva-
lent form of government
in Kentucky", which is
what he said special dis-
tricts are.
Rep. Tom McKee, D-
Cynthiana, said he appre-
ciates those who serve
on special district boards
in his area because they
volunteer their time to
serve. "I've got some
great special districts and
I thank all the people who
serve because they serve
without pay... To get
some kind of benchmark
will be your challenge,"
he told Edelen.
Edelen said he plans to
set the bar %ery high."
The committee heard
from members of some
local fire districts and the
Kentucky Fire Commis-
sion, whose legislative di-
rector Michael "Howdy"
Kurtsinger said he feels
fire taxing districts "are
doing what is required"
under state law. It also
heard from Kentucky
Association of Coun-
ties (KACo) President
Elect and Larue County
Judge Executive Tommy
Turner, who said KACo
endorses both Edelen's
initiative and HCR 53
passed during the 2012
Regular Session.
"We are hopeful that
the majority of (special
districts) will be found to
be in full compliance, act-
ing in a responsible and
efficient manner," said
Turner. KACo is also
willing, said Turner, to
collaborate with state of-
ficials on a local govern-
ment tax reform package
"and would include these
districts in that disctis -:
sion," he said.
