Clarification
In the story “Boyle quickly approves compensating property tax rate” in Thursday’s paper, a typo made the rules about increasing property tax revenue unclear. All taxing agencies wishing to increase their property tax revenue above their compensating rate are required to hold a public hearing, according to Kentucky law.
Correction
On page A1 of Thursday’s paper, an image of Kentucky’s Constitution was misidentified. The image was of the first page of the Constitution, after the front cover.
