  • A 10-Year Perspective of the Merger of Louisville and Jefferson County, KY: Louisville Metro Vaults from 65Th Th to 18 Largest City in the Nation
    A 10-Year Perspective of the Merger of Louisville and Jefferson County, KY: Louisville Metro Vaults From 65th th to 18 Largest City in the Nation Jeff Wachter September, 2013 Over the past 50 years, the idea of merging a city with its neighboring or surrounding county has been contemplated in many American cities, voted upon in a few, and enacted in even fewer. The most prominent American mergers have been Jacksonville, FL; Indianapolis, IN; Nashville, TN; and Lexington, KY. Other cities—including Pittsburgh, PA and Memphis, TN— have attempted mergers, but failed at various stages in the process. City/county consolidation has been a controversial topic, with advocates and opponents pointing to different metrics that support their expectations for the consequences of a merger. Louisville, KY, which merged with Jefferson County on January 1st, 2003, is the most recent example of a city/county consolidation executed by a major American city. This report examines how Louisville Metro has performed over the past decade since the merger took effect by analyzing the city’s economy, population, government spending and efficiency, and public opinion about the merger. In the late 1990s, business and political leaders came together in an attempt to address some of the issues facing the Louisville region, including a long declining population and tax- base, escalating government spending, and multiple economic development organizations fighting to recruit the same businesses (often to the detriment of the greater Louisville region at- large). These leaders determined that a merger of the Louisville and Jefferson County governments was in the best interests of the region, despite the contentious nature of merger debates.

  • Final Reports of the Interim Joint, Special, and Statutory Committees
    FINAL REPORTS OF THE INTERIM JOINT, SPECIAL, AND STATUTORY COMMITTEES 1994-95 Informational Bulletin No. 194 i Legislative Research Commission Frankfort, Kentucky December, 1995 ii FOREWORD The Kentucky Constitution limits the meeting of the General Assembly to sixty legislative days in even-numbered years and to a ten-day organizational session in odd- numbered years. Prior to 1968, there was no activity during the interim period between sessions. The 1970s brought great changes in the legislative setting in Kentucky. The activity of legislative committees has steadily increased during each succeeding interim. With the implementation of the constitutional amendment approved in 1979, the interim activity takes on added significance. This amendment, frequently called the Kenton amendment, changed the election year for legislators from odd- to even-numbered years. Consequently, a legislator serves one year of the term in interim activity before a regular session of the General Assembly is held. With the phased-in implementation of the amendment, the 1984-85 interim marked the first time legislators were elected in even- numbered years and were afforded the opportunity to become familiar with issues and procedures prior to the Regular Session. During the 1994 interim, the Legislative Research Commission authorized the formation of thirteen interim joint committees. In addition, six special committees were established to address particular issues during the interim. Six committees of the General Assembly and the Legislative Research Commission are authorized by statutes: The Administrative Regulation Review Subcommittee, the Capital Planning Advisory Board, the Capital Projects and Bonds Oversight Committee, the Personal Service Contract Review Subcommittee, the Program Review and Investigation Committee, and the Legislative Compensation Commission.
