KRS 61.8715 Legislative findings
The General Assembly finds an essential relationship between the intent of this chapter and that of KRS 171.410 to 171.740, dealing with the management of public records, and of KRS 42.720 to 42.742, 45.253, 171.420, 186A.040, and 186A.285, dealing with the coordination of strategic planning for computerized information systems in state government; and that to ensure the efficient administration of government and to provide accountability of government activities, public agencies are required to manage and maintain their records according to the requirements of these statutes. The General Assembly further recognizes that while all government agency records are public records for the purpose of their management, not all these records are required to be open to public access, as defined in this chapter, some being exempt under KRS 61.878.

Unless exempted by other provisions of KRS 61.870 to 61.884, public records exempted under this provision shall be open after enforcement action is completed or a decision is made to take no action; however, records or information compiled and maintained by county attorneys or Commonwealth’s attorneys pertaining to criminal investigations or criminal litigation shall be exempted from the provisions of KRS 61.870 to 61.884 and shall remain exempted after enforcement action, including litigation, is completed or a decision is made to take no action.

Kentucky Open Records, Open Meetings, and Shield Law
OPEN RECORDS LAW (KRS 61.870-61.884)
What records are public?
The records of virtually every public officer, public agency, and business that derives at least 25 percent of the funds it expends in Kentucky from public sources.
How do you get access to records?
Each public agency is required to adopt its own open records rules that facilitate access to public records. They must publicly post the mailing address, phone number, and e-mail address of the person in charge of fulfilling open records requests received by the agency. Requests are required to be in writing, and agencies must accept requests via e-mail, mail, or fax. Some agencies have adopted a standardized form for submitting open records requests, if so, it must post that information publicly. The written request must describe the records you want to inspect and be signed by you. An agency must respond to your request within five days. It is important to request specific records you seek, and not merely information. An agency has no duty to create a record that does not exist, so phrase your request to obtain specific documents. You can review records during the agency’s regular office hours. However, if you request it, the agency must mail or e-mail the records to you, although you may have to pay a fee for copying and postage. The fee for copying cannot exceed the actual cost of copying ($0.10/page has been found reasonable by the Attorney General), and may not include staff time required to make copies. If records are transmitted electronically, the agency should only charge you for the cost of the electronic medium used to transmit it, and not a per-page fee. If the agency you send your request to does not have custody of the records, it must notify you where the records are located.
What records are excluded?
Some records of public agencies are exempt from disclosure. These include: records that would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of someone’s privacy; confidential records related to scientific research; confidential business records that would give a competitor an unfair commercial advantage; confidential records disclosed to an agency as part of an application for a loan, grant, or tax incentives; some records related to the prospective location of a business; records that are developed by an agency in conjunction with the regulation or supervision of financial institutions; the contents of real estate appraisals and evaluations by a public agency related to acquisition of property; test questions, scoring keys, and other examination data; records related to law enforcement investigations if the agency can show with specificity that release of those records would harm its investigation; preliminary records or memoranda that express opinions or propose policies; records that would threaten public safety; records related to the procurement process until a contract is awarded or a bid cancelled; case files of the Department of Public Advocacy; photographs or videos that depict the death, killing, rape, or sexual assault of a person; communications that are purely personal and unrelated to any government function; and exemptions created by other statutes. If you are denied access to records, the agency is required by law to cite the specific statutory exemption that they are relying on and explain how it applies. Even if some information is exempted from disclosure, the agency must redact the record and release the remaining information. An agency may also deny you access to records if they believe that you have submitted repeat requests intended to disrupt the essential functions of the agency.
Contact the KPA Hotline at 502-416-1630 with any questions.
What can I do if there’s been a violation?
You may appeal to the Attorney General by sending a copy of your request, the denial statement, and a letter explaining why you think the Act was violated to that office. The Attorney General has 20 days to issue an opinion, and you have 30 days to appeal that opinion to Circuit Court in the county where the agency or record you seek is located. You can skip the Attorney General process and file a suit directly in Circuit Court.
OPEN MEETINGS LAW (KRS 61.805-61.850)
What agencies must have open meetings?
Almost every state and local governing body, including committees created by public agencies. This includes any body created by a state or local statute or executive order and any entity with the majority of its governing body appointed by a public agency. The default is that meetings of government agencies must be open. Meetings may be conducted by video teleconferences if certain advance notice requirements are met. To do so, an agency must provide notice that the meeting will be held via video and provide specific information on how any member of the public or media organization may view the meeting electronically.
What must the agency do to have a closed session?
During an open session, the agency must disclose the general nature of the business to be discussed in secret and the law permitting this secrecy. A motion and a public vote to go into closed session is required. With limited exception, no final action can be taken in private and the agency cannot discuss any matters that were not publicly announced prior to convening the closed session except for those topics specifically allowed for by the Open Meetings Act.
Regular and Special Meetings
An agency must make a schedule of regular meetings available to the public. Notice of a special meeting must be made in writing and include the time, place, and agenda for the meeting. Only items on the agenda may be acted upon at a special meeting. The agency must give 24-hour advanced notice of the special meeting to every agency member and to every member of the press that has requested such notification. The agency must also post a written notice of the meeting in a conspicuous place in the building where the special meeting will take place and in the building which houses the headquarters of the agency at least 24 hours before the special meeting.
What can I do if there’s been a violation?
Notify the presiding officer in writing that you believe there’s been a violation, the nature of that violation, and what you think she can do to remedy the violation. The agency has 3 business days to respond. If it denies a violation occurred, the agency must cite the specific statute supporting its denial. If this doesn’t satisfy you, you should mail your written complaint and the agency’s written denial to Attorney General within 60 days of receiving the denial. The Attorney General has 10 days to issue an opinion, and either you or the agency may appeal the decision to your local Circuit Court within 30 days. You may also skip the Attorney General process and file suit directly in the Circuit Court where the agency is headquartered or where the alleged violation of the Act occurred within 60 days of when you received the agency’s response (or 60 days of when you filed the complaint if you didn’t receive a response).
SHIELD LAW (KRS 421.100)
Newspaper, radio or television broadcasting station personnel need not disclose source of information.
No person shall be compelled to disclose in any legal proceeding or trial before any court, or before any grand or petit jury, or before the presiding officer of any tribunal, or his agent or agents, or before the General Assembly, or any committee thereof, or before any city or county legislative body, or any committee thereof, or elsewhere, the source of any information procured or obtained by him, and published in a newspaper or by a radio or television broadcasting station by which he is engaged or employed, or with which he is connected.
You cannot be compelled to disclose the source of published information. If you have a question, call the KPA Hotline at 502-416-1630.
