Terms Used In Kentucky Statutes 262.660

  • Lease: A contract transferring the use of property or occupancy of land, space, structures, or equipment in consideration of a payment (e.g., rent). Source: OCC
  • Statute: A law passed by a legislature.
  • Veto: The procedure established under the Constitution by which the President/Governor refuses to approve a bill or joint resolution and thus prevents its enactment into law. A regular veto occurs when the President/Governor returns the legislation to the house in which it originated. The President/Governor usually returns a vetoed bill with a message indicating his reasons for rejecting the measure. In Congress, the veto can be overridden only by a two-thirds vote in both the Senate and the House.

(c) The terms and conditions for rental or lease agreements between districts and persons for the use of acquired heavy or specialized equipment, including but not limited to permissible uses of the equipment, care and maintenance of the equipment, liability assumptions for property damage or bodily injury caused by the equipment, insurance requirements, availability of the equipment for use by others in the district, and the keeping of public records regarding the use of the equipment. Notwithstanding any provision of this chapter or KRS Chapter 42 or 45A to the contrary, lease agreements shall allow lessees to use acquired heavy or specialized equipment outside of their own lands, and with prior approval of the board for the leasing district, on lands outside of their districts; and
