<p>Basic infrastructure is a necessity for economic growth. Many of our Kentucky communities do not have the basic water, sewer, solid waste facilities and other infrastructure that they need for their citizens. This is due in large part to the high costs of these services. The Kentucky Infrastructure Authority (KIA) was created in 1988 to provide the mechanism for funding construction of local public works projects. KIA is continually growing and expanding its services. Through the various programs currently offered, KIA has become the answer for local financing needs.</p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.mepak.org/industry-links/rss-comments-entry-10468285.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>Kentucky Legislature</title><dc:creator>Startzman Design</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 13 Feb 2011 20:32:38 +0000</pubDate><link>http://www.mepak.org/industry-links/2011/2/13/kentucky-legislature.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">797150:9396252:10468272</guid><description><![CDATA[<p><a class="offsite-link-inline" href="http://www.lrc.state.ky.us" target="_blank"><strong>www.lrc.state.ky.us</strong></a><br /><strong>Kentucky Legislature</strong>&nbsp;</p>
