Legislation changing the decision-making process for items situated in Kentucky’s Capitol Rotunda is nearing final consideration. The House backed bill got Senate committee approval Wednesday. It takes authority away from the Historic Properties Advisory Commission and places the responsibility with the General Assembly. GOP Bill Sponsor is David Hale of Wellington.
“If the Historic Properties Advisory Commission violates this paragraph each member should be jointly and severally liable for any and all cost to remove or install the applicable statue, monument, or object of art in the new State Capitol Rotunda,” said Hale.
