Hello, God! By Linda Waggener This inspirational early morning photo by Kallie Stotts just speaks of the wonders of the universe. It reminds me of the time we did a "Question on the Street" and one little child - in answer to the question "How do you picture God?" - said, "Well, you just point your camera up and say, 'Say cheese, God.'" --LW Comments re Photo: Dramatic Skies over Columbia 2019-08-12 21:22:26 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

General Fund and Road Fund receipts for July 2019 General Fund receipts increase 1.9 percent. Sales tax and lottery receipts showed big increases. Road Fund receipts increase 0.4 percent By John E. Chilton/Greg Harkenrider Frankfort, KY - State Budget Director John Chilton announced today Kentucky's General Fund receipts for July, the first month of Fiscal Year 2020 (FY20), totaled $845.7 million, a 1.9 percent increase compared to July 2018 receipts. Increases in the sales and use tax and cigarette taxes out-paced declines in the income, natural resources and property taxes as the impacts of tax law changes continue to influence monthly receipts. The official revenue estimate for FY20 calls for revenue to grow 0.6 percent compared to FY19 actual receipts. Based on July's receipts, General Fund revenues need to increase 0.5 percent for the remainder of the fiscal year to meet the official estimate. The FY20 official estimate consists of the December 2017 revenue estimate rendered by the Consensus Forecasting Group (CFG) adjusted for subsequently enacted legislation. The CFG met on August 9 to begin the process of revising the FY20 revenue estimate as well as preparing estimates for FY21 and FY22. The CFG will meet again in October before rendering final revenue estimates in December.
