Applicability.
(1)Except as otherwise expressly provided by law, in appointing members to boards,
committees, commissions, task forces, ad hoc committees, and other administrative
bodies created by or whose membership is appointed by the executive authority,
legislative authority, or a combination of both of the consolidated local government,
either under their home rule authority or in response to a requirement or option
under the authority of the Kentucky Revised Statutes, the appointing authority shall
make a conscientious effort to select, from among the most qualified persons, those
persons whose appointment would ensure that the membership of the board,
committee, commission, task force, ad hoc committee, or other administrative body
accurately reflects the geographic population of the area represented by the local
board, committee, commission, task force, or ad hoc committee, or other
administrative body as determined pursuant to the most recent federal decennial
census, unless the law regulating such appointment requires otherwise.
(2)If there are multiple appointing authorities for the board, committee, commission,
task force, ad hoc committee, or administrative body, they shall consult with each
other to ensure compliance with this section.
(3)This section shall apply to appointments and reappointments made after July 15,
2024. It shall not prohibit a member of a board, committee, commission, task force,
ad hoc committee, or other administrative body from completing a term serving as a
member when this section takes effect. A person appointed to a board, committee,
commission, task force, ad hoc committee, or other administrative body prior to
July 15, 2024, shall not be removed from the appointment solely for the purpose of
meeting the requirements of this section.
