State simplifies paperwork for charitable gaming Commonwealth News Service story Charities that operate only limited gaming for fundraising now have less paperwork, thanks to legislation supported by Governor Ernie Fletcher and passed by the 2007 Kentucky General Assembly. The legislation, House Bill 156, took effect June 26, 2007. "This administration recognized that the reporting requirements for charitable gaming imposed an undue hardship on organizations that conduct limited gaming," said Tim LeDonne, commissioner of the Department of Public Protection in the Environmental and Public Protection Cabinet. "We want to ease the regulatory burden on these volunteer groups while maintaining appropriate fiscal oversight." Under the new law, a charity that grosses less than $200,000 a year and that does not have weekly bingo games is required to submit financial reports to the state Office of Charitable Gaming once a year rather than quarterly, as previously required of all charities. This change affects about 350 out of 800 (44 percent) licensed charities. The new law also expands the Charitable Gaming Advisory Council from nine to 11 members, specifies that the board must have at least one representative from a veteran's group, a Catholic charity and a volunteer fire department. It authorizes the council to review and be given a chance to comment on proposed changes in regulations governing charitable gaming. The Office of Charitable Gaming is part of the Department of Public Protection in the Environmental and Public Protection Cabinet. 2007-07-05 15:37:05 | Comments | Printable version

Fourth of July fireworks show draws largest ever crowds Chief Harris says weather good. Crowds were good. No trouble. Wonderful fireworks show By Ed Waggener The Fourth of July fireworks display last night at the Adair County Fair, may have drawn it's biggest crowd of celebrants ever.

The event climaxed a beautiful day in Columbia and followed a paid concert, which filled the parking lot and much of the infield before the start of the fireworks display at 9:00pm. "The crowd outside the fairgrounds was much larger than at the concert," Columbia Police Chief Mark Harris said. He concurred that the number of spectators appeared to be up.
