KRS 100.401: Legislative intent.

It is the intent of KRS 100.401 to 100.419 to strengthen the enforcement of binding

elements which have been approved as part of a land use development plan in a county

containing a consolidated local government. This is intended to be done by extending to a

planning commission in counties containing a consolidated local government the

authority to issue remedial orders and impose civil fines in order to provide an equitable,

expeditious, effective, and inexpensive method of ensuring compliance with approve d

land use plans as they apply to binding element agreements. KRS 100.401 to 100.419 is

intended and shall be construed to provide an additional or supplemental means of

obtaining compliance with local zoning ordinances and nothing contained in KRS

100.401 to 100.419 shall prohibit the enforcement of local zoning ordinances by any

other means authorized by law.
