§ 54.01 ESTABLISHMENT.
   By this chapter and pursuant to KRS 65.205 to 65.209 (the EPAD Act) there is established an energy project assessment district (EPAD) program within the boundaries of Lincoln County, Kentucky (the County) to advance the conservation and efficient use of energy and water resources within the County by allowing for eligible energy projects to be financed by assessments imposed upon the real property being improved through those energy projects (the EPAD Program). All capitalized terms used in this chapter where the rules of grammar would not otherwise require capitalization and not defined in this chapter shall have the meanings given to them in the EPAD Act, particularly KRS 65.205.
(Ord. 6.25.21, passed 6-25-2021)
§ 54.02 PURPOSE.
   As authorized under the EPAD Act, the County Fiscal Court intends to use the assessments imposed under the EPAD Program to support private sector Energy Projects.
(Ord. 6.25.21, passed 6-25-2021)
§ 54.03 DESIGNATION.
   The EPAD is designated the Lincoln County EPAD. The boundaries of the Lincoln County EPAD shall include the entire geographic territory of the County.
(Ord. 6.25.21, passed 6-25-2021)
§ 54.04 ADMINISTRATION.
   The EPAD Program shall be administered by the County (initially, the Program Administrator). If so determined by the County Judge/Executive, the County is authorized to engage a third-party EPAD Program Administrator to administer the EPAD Program, and from and after that time such administrator shall be the Program Administrator. In addition to the actions and determinations specifically described in this chapter (as it may be amended and in effect from time to time), the Program Administrator may take such further actions and exercise such further discretion as may be necessary for the efficient and effective administration of the EPAD Program, provided that all such actions and discretion shall at all times be authorized under the EPAD Act and shall not be inconsistent with the terms and conditions of the EPAD Program set forth in this chapter. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Program Administrator may from time to time develop additional eligibility criteria, develop or adopt a handbook for the EPAD Program, develop a standard application form, and retain third-party services in association with the management and operation of the EPAD Program, all of the cost of which shall be paid from fees collected with assessments imposed under the EPAD Program.
(Ord. 6.25.21, passed 6-25-2021)
