KRS 100.121: Joint planning units.

(1) At any time, the legislative bodies of cities and the fiscal court of the county

containing the cities may enter into an agreement to form a joint planning unit by

combining planning operations in order that they may carry out a joint city -county

planning program. Combinations may include any combination of cities with their

county or parts thereof; provided, however, that no self-excluded city in such county

may form an independent planning unit.

local government created pursuant to KRS Chapter 67C, then all other cities within

the county shall also be parts of the unit.
