This bill proposes to amend the Delta Development Act to expand the geographic scope of the Delta Regional Authority . It specifically seeks to include three additional counties in Kentucky: Hancock, Ohio, and Daviess . By modifying Section 4(2)(C) of the Act, these counties would become part of the Authority's designated service area, alongside existing counties. The inclusion of these counties would make them eligible for various federal programs and investments administered by the Delta Regional Authority. These programs typically focus on fostering economic development, improving infrastructure, and creating jobs in distressed communities. The amendment aims to extend these benefits to the newly added Kentucky counties, supporting regional growth and addressing local economic challenges.
