B
A
We
do
have
a
a
due
to
resolve
quorum
and
I'd
like
to
remind
you
sort
of
the
way
the
meeting's
going
to
flow.
Today
we
are
going
to
do
the
resolutions
for
the
appointments
first
and
I'm
going
to
have
each
one
done
individually
and
we're
going
to
do
a
roll
call
vote
with
them.
I
would
like
them
as
the
sponsor
of
the
bill.
A
A
I
would
like,
when
you
get
up
there,
to
keep
your
comments
short
I'll,
ask
for
comments
from
the
sponsor
and
from
the
the
person
that's
getting
appointed
or
a
reappointment
but
be
sure
and
keep
those
short,
because
we
do
have
a
very
full
agenda.
Today,
we'd
like
to
remind
members
that
we
do
have
a
bill
senate
bill,
148
we'll
take
action
on
and
senate
resolution
26.
A
So
we
will
need
a
quorum
for
the
entire
meeting,
so
I'd
encourage
members
to
be
sure
and
stay
around
for
the
entire
meeting.
I'm
gonna
go
a
little
bit
out
of
order.
I'm
gonna
the
ones
that
made
the
effort
to
get
here.
I'm
gonna
do
those
first,
so
first
to
the
table
will
be
senator
john
schickel
with
senate
resolution.
126.
C
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
since
we
have
a
a
large
contingent
of
fa
ffa
students
in
the
crowd
today
just
wanted
to
let
you
know
a
little
bit
about
this
process.
The
senate,
according
to
the
constitution,
in
some
cases,
statute,
has
the
authority
to
confirm
appointments
to
certain
boards
and
commissions
made
by
the
executive
branch,
the
governor,
or
in
this
case
the
commissioner
of
agriculture.
C
So
these
resolutions
go
through
the
normal
process
of
being
vetted
through
committee
like
they
are
today
and
if
they're
passed
favorably
through
committee,
then
they
go
to
the
full
senate
floor
for
ultimate
confirmation,
and
then
those
those
individuals
are
confirmed
for
the
term
that
they
were
appointed
to
by
the
member
of
the
executive
branch.
In
this
case
the
commissioner
of
agriculture.
A
Thank
you
damon,
and
I
forgot
to
introduce
the
the
group
from
the
4-h
hart
county
4-h.
If
you
all
would
stand
up
and
be
recognized,
we
do
have
a
a
large
group
from
heart,
cranny,
4-h.
D
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
It's
an
honor
to
be
here
today
to
present
my
friend
david
wallace,
for
his
confirmation
hearing
for
the
kentucky
fair
board.
F
D
It's
an
honor
to
be
here
today
to
present
my
friend
david
wallace,
for
his
confirmation
hearing
to
the
fair
board.
I've
known
david
for
probably
35
years.
Consider
him
a
good
good
friend.
D
I
can't
think
of
a
person
more
appropriate
to
be
on
the
fair
board
in
our
own
boone
county,
fair,
which
is
a
world-class
fair
he's
not
only
on
the
fair
board
he's
there.
Every
day
from
morning
to
evening,
working
livestock
displays
hooking
up
electric.
Whatever
he's
asked
to
he's
a
hands-on
guy
he's,
not
a
guy
that
stands
behind
the
scenes
he's
a
hands-on
guy.
A
E
Absolutely
thank
you
senator
hornbach
senators.
It's
a
pleasure
to
be
here.
My
name
again
is
david
wallace.
I
served
on
the
state
fair
board
from
2016
until
2020,
and
then
it
was
went
off
for
just
a
little
while
and
was
reappointed
last
year
by
the
commissioner.
E
You
know
my
history
with
the
kentucky
state
fair
and
the
expo
center
goes
back
to.
When
I
was
born.
I
I've
never
missed
a
kentucky
state
fair.
I
turned
60
years
old
this
year
showed
cattle
there.
My
passion
is
for
agriculture,
these
4h
and
ffa
members.
That's
what
we
are
here
for
one
of
our
main.
The
core
purpose
of
the
state
fair
board,
is
to
support
kentucky
agriculture
and
to
highlight
it
nationally
and
internationally.
E
You
know
the
the
view
for
the
state
fair
board
that
I
have
is
huge.
We
have
a
we've,
always
had
a
premier
facility
that
we've
got
the
north
american
livestock
show,
but
the
competition
is
is
growing
on
us
and
my
vision
for
this
state
fair
and
the
expo
center
convention
center.
Is
we
we're
going
to
have
to
do
some
major
upgrades?
You
know
you
got
national
western
in
denver.
They've
spent
a
billion
dollars
on
their
facilities.
We've
got
places
in
oklahoma,
grand
island
that
are
continually
upgrading
their
facilities.
E
E
So
I
I've
got
a
passion
for
this.
This
is,
I
can
tell
you
this
is
absolutely
of
all
the
boards
I've
ever
served
on
and
I've
served
on
a
lot.
G
I
have
a
comment
and
since
there's
so
many
4-h
and
ffa
members
here
today,
there
were
longer
than
35
years
ago.
Unfortunately,
senator
schickel,
this
horse
girl
from
east
kentucky
met
that
cowboy
from
west
kentucky
from
princeton
and
at
4-h
congress.
Every
year
we
worked
together
on
policy.
We
worked
together
on
the
governance
and
then
later
on,
we
went
to
northern
kentucky
university
law
school
together,
so
david's
also
a
very
accomplished
lawyer,
but
he
speaks
the
truth
and
he
he
did
an
excellent
job.
G
A
Thank
you,
senator
webb.
I
would
like
to
remind
everybody
that
all
of
these
appointees
we
have
today
all
of
them
had
this
meet
the
statutory
requirements
to
serve
on
the
boards.
They've
all
had
background
checks,
they've
been
fully
vetted,
so
we'd
like
to
remind
everybody
that
all
of
these
appointees
have
have
been
through
that
any
other
comments,
if
not
take
a
motion,
senator
thayer.
C
C
Mr
chairman,
I
do
think
we
are
at
the
point
of
session
where
it
is
time
to
put
resolutions
like
this
on
the
consent
calendar.
So
I'd
like
to
make
a
motion
for
consent
for
senate
resolution
126.
A
H
A
H
A
I've
got
a
motion
in
a
second
I'm
going
to
call
on
michael
first,
if
you've
got
any
comments,
you'd
like
to
make
about
serving
on
the
ag
development
board.
H
Thank
you,
sir.
It's
just
a
great
honor
in
our
industry
as
agriculturalists
and
see
all
these
young
people
behind
us
we're
always
talking
about
the
generational
flip.
You
know
when's
the
next
generation
gonna
take
over
and
I
kind
of
feel
like
I
have
you
know
the
ag
development
board
is
you
know,
20
plus
years,
and
I
feel
like
there's
kind
of
a
flip
taking
place
right
now
and
certainly
honored
to
be
one
of
the
younger
board
members.
H
I
have
an
opportunity
to
learn
before
some
of
the
senior
board
members
are
retire
or
step
down
and-
and
I
just
consider
it
a
an
honor
and
and
with
the
highest
regard
for
the
purpose
of
this
board
and
the
monies
that
are
allocated
to
help
diversify
agriculture
in
kentucky
and
and
just
very
appreciative
for
the
opportunity
to
serve
the
commonwealth
and
and
have
the
opportunity
to
work
for
these
guys
behind
us.
H
H
A
D
She
turned
that
around
and
her
reputation
precedes
her
in
the
banking
industry,
she's
she's
one
of
the
superstars
and,
as
you
know,
mr
mr
chairman,
we
need
people
with
banking
expertise
on
this
ag
finance
corporation,
because
you
know
the
loans
have
to
be
made
properly
and
it
helps
a
lot
of
young
farmers.
But
the
main
thing
is:
they
have
to
make
loans
that
get
repaid
and
and
linda's
a
valuable
asset,
and
I
hopefully
we'll
will
reappoint
her.
J
I
do
it's
just
been
my
honor
to
serve
on
this
board
and
we
were
talking
before
the
hearing
started
that
when
I
joined,
I
think
we
were
at
45
million
in
assets
we're
over
100
million.
Now
we
are,
we
are
a
bank
and
I'm
very,
very
proud
of
how
the
board
works
together
to
ensure
that
we
are
getting
money
out
the
door
to
assist
particularly
our
young
farmers,
but
but
across
the
whole
ag
community.
J
A
It
doesn't
miss
rumpke,
I
know
you
probably
know
my
brother,
steve
and-
and
I
think
he's
done
joel
and
you
correct
me
wrong.
I
think
he's
done
more
of
these
loans
than
anybody
else
has
in
the
state
and
just
a
great
asset.
What
the
finite
ag
finance
does
for
our
young
farmers,
like
you,
said
more
than
anybody
else.
So
we
appreciate
that
any
members
got
any
questions
not
to
have
a
motion
on
the
bill
motion.
A
A
Mr
rumpke,
congratulations
look
forward
to
working
with
you
again
on
ag
finance
to
have
a
motion
for
consent,
motion
consent.
Second,
all
in
favor
say
aye.
All
opposed
like
sign.
A
A
I
I'm
marshall
coyle,
I
am
a
beef
cattle
farmer,
cow
calf
operation
from
bath
county
kentucky,
my
son
and
I
operate
together.
We
cave
out
the
coast
of
cows
and
then
we
background
the
feeder
caves.
But
thank
you,
mr
chairman,.
A
I
think
I've
known
marshall-
I
guess
all
of
my
adult
life
marshall
we
served
in
that-
is
a
long
time.
A
Hopefully
you'll
get
there
senator
thayer,
but
I've
known
him
most
all
my
adult
life.
I
started
going
to
farm
bureau
meetings
when
I
was
young.
My
dad
was
in
far
bureau,
marshall
was
there
then,
and-
and
marshall
is
one
of
those
that
has
made
a
tremendous
commitment
for
his
whole
life
to
serve
agriculture
and
doing
it
a
way
that
is
he's
always
respected
everywhere.
He
goes
and
and
marshall,
whether
it
be
on
the
fair
board,
whether
it
be
your
years
in
farm
bureau,
where
it
be
years
with
leadership
in
tobacco.
A
You've
just
done
an
outstanding
job
and,
and
marshall
was
one.
If
you
go
down
to
the
state
fair
any
time
or
to
the
to
the
machinery
show
this
week,
marshall's
always
there
and
he's
always
out
and
he's
out
and
he's
helping
the
help.
That's
there
too,
and
david
wallace
is
shaking
his
head.
A
You
know
marshall's
one
of
those
he's
got
that
farm
boy
attitude
and
if
there's
work
to
be
done,
he's
gonna
get
in
there
and
do
it,
and
so
he
doesn't
just
go
around
and
point
and
tell
people
what
to
do
but
marshall's
out
there
working
he's
probably
been
shining
tractors
this
week
already,
but
marshall.
I
turn
over
to
you
for
any
comments
you
may
have
about
the
fair
board
and
and
why
you
want
to
be
reappointed
again.
I
Well,
thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
I
appreciate
those
kind
remarks
you
know
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
serve
on
the
fair
board
for
a
while
the
fact
they
call
me
the
old
man
of
the
board
now,
which
is
fine,
but
I
will
tell
you
in
my
mind:
we
are
operating
so
good
right
now
it
is
as
smooth
as
I
can
ever
remember.
I
You
know
my
heart
lies
with
agriculture.
My
heart
lies
with
the
youth
and
what
we
do
for
them
on
the
on
at
the
fairgrounds
I
love
being
there.
You
know,
mr
chairman,
mentioned
about
the
state
fair.
I
move
in
today
before
the
fire
starts
moving
the
day
after
it's
over
when
we
finish
today,
I'm
headed
to
louisville
for
what
I
call
the
big
daddy
of
what
we
do
all
year
and
that
is
the
national
farm
machine,
we're
showing
tractor
pull,
and
I
will
leave
out
there
sunday
morning.
My
son
said
leave
early.
I
I
don't
know
that
I'll
quite
make
it
real
early,
but
it
is
an
honor
for
me
to
serve
on
the
kentucky
state,
fair
board.
You
know
we've
come
a
long
way,
folks,
with
the
help
that
you
have
given
us
in
helping
make
improvements
and
keeping
helping
keeping
our
facility
up,
but,
like
mr
wallace
mentioned,
we
face
this
challenge
every
day
with
other
facilities
that
are
building
new
and
doing
a
lot
of
remodeling,
and
we
still
need
your
help.
I
think
we
haven't.
We've
got
so
much
future
ahead
of
us.
I
A
Motion
got
a
motion.
Second,
what
they
would
like
to
remember
is,
while
marshall's
still
there,
invite
all
the
members
out
tomorrow
night
and
be
sure
you
remember,
they
got
a
reception
at
six
o'clock
tomorrow,
night
marshall,
down
to
state
fairgrounds
for
the
national
farm
machinery
show
and
the
tractor
pull
going
on
tomorrow
night.
So
I
want
to
remind
members
to
maybe
our
senate
pro
tem
and
some
of
those
can
get
us
out
a
little
early,
so
we
make
it
down
there
by
six
o'clock
tomorrow,
night.
G
A
I
You
very
much
appreciate
it
and
we'll
look
forward
to
seeing
you
all
tomorrow
night
and
any
other
time
you
can
come
with
visit
with
us
at
the
kentucky
exposition
center.
Thank
you.
A
A
Our
next
resolution
senate
resolution
117!
If
I
ask
senator
caslin
and
your
guest
suzanne
cecil
white,.
K
K
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
know
her
family
most
of
my
life,
and
you
couldn't
ask
for
a
finer
family
in
our
community,
and
I
think
we're
going
to
be
blessed
here
in
kentucky
to
have
such
a
bright
mind
serving
on
the
ag
development
board
and
bringing
such
a
wealth
of
knowledge
from
the
agritourism
to
the
production,
to
the
entertainment,
all
the
different
stuff
that
they
do
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
suzanna.
Tell
a
little
bit
about
herself.
L
As
I
said,
I'm
from
owensboro
davis,
county
and
I've
been
a
farmer
for
10
years
now
I
was
formerly
a
high
school
math
teacher,
never
dreamed.
I've
turned
to
become
a
farmer,
but
my
family's
been
farming.
My
whole
life,
we've
been
direct
recipients
and
beneficiaries
of
the
ag
development
fund
and
kentucky
ag
finance
so
being
appointed
to
this
board
is
a
full
circle
moment.
L
For
me,
I
believe
I'm
placed
there
to
serve
as
inspiration
and
a
reminder
to
young
people
like
these
behind
us
in
this
room
that
that
burning
dream
in
your
heart
is
there
for
a
reason,
and
it
may
take
until
you're
in
your
40s
like
me
to
really
realize
it
and
find
that
backing
and
support.
But
you
know
the
ag
development
board
and
fun
changed.
L
My
life
changed
my
family's
life,
helping
us
diversify
from
a
heavily
tobacco-dependent
operation,
having
over
250
acres
a
year
to
being
fully
diversified
and
having
zero
tobacco
dependency
now
and
chasing
our
dreams.
So
I'm
super
grateful
to
be
a
part
of
this
and
if
nothing
else
like
I
said
to
hopefully
serve
as
an
inspiration
of
believing
you
can
and
even
when
you
run
into
those
adult
hurdles,
kids
in
the
back,
it's
there
for
a
reason,
and
there
are
people
that
are
going
to
back
you
and
I'm
one
of
those
people.
A
Miss
white,
thank
you
very
much
and-
and
you
have
made
a
great
contribution-
and
I
haven't
met
you
personally,
but
I've
heard
a
lot
about
you
from
down
in
the
daviess
county
area,
and
one
comment
that
you
made
is
is
how
important
how
we've
diversified
away
from
tobacco-
and
there
was
a
some
at
a
meeting.
The
other
day
we
were
in
in
2000.
A
Our
revenue
for
the
state
of
kentucky
in
ag
was
about
three
billion
dollars
over
a
third
of
that
was
tobacco
and
for
those
members
of
the
legislature
that
have
been
here
a
lot
longer
than
I
have
senator
webb
they
now
this
year
this
past
year
it
was
four
percent
of
the
total
income
for
the
state
of
kentucky
from
going.
So
when
you
talk
about
diversification
in
20
years
time,
the
impact
that
ag
development
board
has
touched.
Everybody
that's
involved
in
agriculture,
it's
it's
quite
an
honor
for
you
to
get
appointed
on
there.
Thank.
L
A
Motion
passes
ms
white:
congratulations
to
have
a
motion
for
consent,
a
motion
second
and
second
for
consent.
All
in
favor,
say
aye
aye,
aye,
all
opposed
life
sign
goes
on
consent.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
being
here
today
for
making
the
trip.
I
hope
you
didn't
make
the
trip
quite
as
fast
as
senator
caslin
does.
Sometimes
I
worry
that
he
may
be
skirting
the
law.
A
Our
next
appointment,
senator
gibbons
is
senate
resolution
114
and
I
think
your
guest
is
virtual.
F
A
F
Supporting
the
reappointment
of
fritz
gieske
to
the
the
ag
development
board,
representing
kentucky
farm
bureau.
I
think
the
one
thing
that
I
would
I
would
recommend
all
members
mark
in
his
resume.
F
It's
great
that
we
have
those
voices
on
this
board,
and
so
I
appreciate
the
commissioner
putting
up
this
nomination
for
reappointment
and
I
proudly
support
the
resolution
and
would
would
hope
that
mr
giesky
might
have
some
some
advice
for
us
about
how
life
on
the
farm
is
today.
A
B
A
Senator
storm
and
I
think
you've
got
senate
resolution
125
and
I
think
that
your
guest
is
here
virtually.
That
is
that's
correct.
F
F
A
I
think
you're
muted,
if
you
could
unmute
and
give
us
a
few
words
about
serving
on
the
state,
fair
board.
M
A
Well,
thank
you
for
your
contributions.
You
served
for
a
while,
and
it's
always
enjoyable
to
work
with
you
and
you,
representing
all
of
our
county
fairs,
all
over
the
state.
We
appreciate
you
taking
the
time
to
serve
on
the
state
fair
board.
Thank
you.
Any
other
comments.
A
Congratulations,
michael,
I'm
being
reappointed
to
the
state
fair
board,
look
forward
to
working
with
you
in
the
future.
Thank.
M
A
Just
one
step
of
the
process,
I
do
have
emotional
consent
have
a
second
second,
oh
all
in
favor
of
consent,
say,
say:
aye
all
opposed
like
son,
michael,
like
senator
thayer,
said
you're
one
step
closer.
A
Our
next
resolution
would
be
senate
resolution.
120
is
senator
nemes
here
there
he
is
senator
nemes
and
I
think
that
you're
appointment
is
here
virtual
with
us.
Also,
I
think
larry
jaggers.
A
He
was
there
and
they
said,
he's
gone
now.
I
guess
he
got
bored,
senator
senator
nemes.
Oh,
he
is
there.
Okay.
H
This
resolution
is
confirmed:
larry
brown
jaggers
to
the
kentucky
agri,
agriculture,
finance,
corporation
board
of
directors,
and
you
know
we
try
to
put
the
senators
with
match
them
up
with
the
people,
but
this
young
fella
he
lives
in
in
hardin
county
and
I'm
from
bullitt,
but
I
think
what
they
mixed
up
is.
He
wants
the
living
bullet
so
and
he's
welcome
to
come
over.
Our
bullet
might
want
to
just
annex
hardin
county,
but
but
this
guy
I
looked
him
up
and
it's
been
impressive.
H
He's
47
years
he's
been
running
a
dairy
farm,
it
started
a
family,
dairy
farm
and
built
it
to
a
enormous
farm
there
in
hardin
county
and
his
sons
are
running
it
now,
so
he
doesn't
have
to
do
the
hard
work,
but
he
doesn't
want
to
retire.
So
he's
doing
these
kind
of
things,
and-
and
I'm
very
much
for
this
guy
after
reading
his
long
long
resume
that
I
won't-
I
won't
do
here
and
I
think
most
of
his
success
has
been
because
of
his
wife
carol.
N
A
Okay,
it's
got
to
be
somewhere
on
the
committee.
Okay,
anybody
else
got
any
comments,
senator
perry,
you
got
any
comments.
A
F
He
is
from
hardin
county
and
he
is
a
longtime
farm.
Family
they've
showed
the
count
at
the
state
fair
for
years
and
been
active
in
everything
in
hardin,
county
agriculture
and
it's
a
wonderful
family
and
larry
of
the
sun.
Larry
is
following
the
footsteps
of
his
families
and
and
a
great
family,
and
this
is
a
this-
is
a
a
nice
honor
for
them.
A
A
O
Thank
you
so
much
student
resolution,
119
is
for
a
a
dear
dear
friend
of
mine,
and
when
we
say
we've
noticed
them
on
our
entire
life.
It
is
someone
that
I
definitely
that
being
mr
dan
flanagan
I've
known
dan
from
a
lot
of
capacities.
O
His
work
in
the
taylor
county
community
first
with
campbellsville
college
dan,
was
instrumental
in
my
mom's
first
year
of
coaching
in
1975,
of
probably
helping
to
provide
budgetary
resources
to
her
and
picking
up
meals
and
and
for
her
basketball
team
on
travel
games
to
and
from,
and
also
his
work
within,
our
community
with
agriculture.
O
P
P
Good
to
see
you
chairman,
thank
you
so
much.
I
am
dan
flanagan
taylor
county,
I'm
what
you
would
call
a
first
generation
farmer.
I
started
at
when
I
was
18
years
old
on
rented
ground
with
borrowed
equipment
and
we've
been
in
a
farming
business.
P
Up
until
now,
we
are
involved
in
grain
farming
produce
wholesale
in
retail,
as
well
as
we've
been
involved
in
the
poultry
industry
for
many
many
years
and
been
honored
and
blessed
to
serve
on
that
board
and
as
well
as
chair
of
that
board
for
for
many
years
and
as
senator
max
said,
I've
been
involved
in
higher
education
served
for
14
years
on
the
council
for
post-secondary
education.
P
I've
had
the
honor
and
privilege
of
serving
on
many
agriculture
boards
here
in
kentucky,
as
well
as
regional
and
national
boards
on
agribank's
board,
which
funds
the
farm
credit
system
in
22
states.
It's
a
100
billion
dollar
bank.
So
I
served
on
that
board
for
four
years
and
was
honored
to
serve
on
the
national
farm
credit
council.
P
For
about
that
many
years
out
of
dc,
I
am
so
thankful
and
pleased
that
senator
max
wise
introduced
me.
He
I've
known
him
since
he
was
running
around
in
diapers
and
then
he's
sorted
out
grown
at
us
a
little
bit
and
we're
in
taylor
county
are
so
proud
and
so
thankful
for
him.
I'm
also
very
pleased
to
receive
this
nomination
by
ag
commissioner
ryan
quarles,
a
very
good,
close
friend
of
mine,
that
I've
worked
with
since
his
student
days
looking
forward
to
working
with
the
ag
finance
corporation.
P
I
I
hope
that
my
experiences
with
farm
credit
with
agriculture
with
education
and
my
experience
in
the
agricultural
community
can
bring
some
asset
to
that
board,
and
I
certainly
hope
that
I
can
do
that.
I
have
worked
with
young
people
through
the
college
and
and
other
avenues
for
so
many
many
years
and
that's
sort
of
my
passion,
central
hornback,
to
make
sure
that
we
pass
on
to
our
young
people.
P
A
Well,
thank
you
dan
for
being
here
today
and
you
can
see
that
dan
is
probably
one
that's
overly
qualified,
with
his
experience
and
background
in
ag
finance
and
serving
all
the
national
boards,
but
dan
have
known
you
a
long
time
and
you
do
a
great
job
in
your
service
to
agriculture.
So,
thank
you.
Do
you
have
a
motion
about
a
motion?
A
second
secretary
call
the
roll.
A
A
Well,
thank
you,
and
our
next
senate
resolution
is
senate
resolution
118
dr
douglas
senator
douglas
and
dr
douglas
is
one
of
the
our
most
recent
addition
to
the
senate
and
just
an
outstanding
addition,
dr
douglas.
It's
an
honor
to
have
you
here
today.
N
Mr
mr
kenneth
burdine
for
nomination
to
the
agriculture
finance
corporation
board
of
directors
in
resolution
incident
resolution
118..
Mr
chairman,
I
know
you're
very
familiar
with
mr
burdine
and
his
extensive
resume.
He
holds
a
phd
in
agricultural
economics
from
the
university
of
kentucky.
His
professional
experience
includes
two
decades
of
service
with
the
department
of
agricultural
economics
where
he
currently
serves
as
associate
extends
extension
professor.
N
Mr
burdine
is
here
and
is
here
via
zoom,
and
should
there
be
any
questions,
I'm
sure
he'll
be
happy
to
answer
them.
F
I
would
thank
you
very
much
hope
you
can
hear
me.
Okay,
if
I
I'm,
I
apologize
for
not
being
there
in
person,
I'm
actually
at
the
southern
aggiecon
association
meetings,
so
I'm
hoping
the
hotel
wi-fi
holds
up
here.
I'm
I'm
joining
from
my
hotel
room
and
I'm
gonna
apologize
to
him.
I
have
to
slip
out
before
it's
over.
I've
actually
got
to
deliver
the
southern
dairy
outlook
here
about
15
20
minutes
or
so
so
I
apologize
for
that.
F
But
certainly
I
want
to
begin
by
thanking
senator
dr
douglas,
and
I
certainly
want
to
thank
mr
quarles
for
the
appointment.
I
certainly
want
to
thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
the
committee
for
considering
the
confirmation
of
my
appointment,
so
I
was
thinking
about
this
briefly.
I
guess
the
comment
that
I
would
make
about.
You
know
why
I
really
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
serve
on
the
ag
finance
board.
F
I
kept
thinking
about
a
picture
of
my
father
and
I,
when
I
was
a
freshman
in
high
school
and
we
were
standing,
we
had
just
topped
what
was
the
tobacco
crop.
We
were
most
proud
of
when
I
was
a
freshman
there
about
14
years
old
and
in
a
lot
of
ways.
Tobacco
money
is
what
put
me
through
school.
I've
said
that
many
times
and
it's
just
an
honor
to
serve
on
a
board
that
really
exists.
F
I
think
in
a
loan
pool,
because
of
how
our
state
chose
to
invest
some
of
those
tobacco
settlement
dollars,
and
I
think
that's
something
that
everybody
in
that
room
and
a
lot
of
other
folks
have
a
lot
to
be
proud
of.
So
I
think
that
the
work
of
the
ag
finance
board
certainly
matters.
I
think
it
makes
a
difference,
mr
chairman,
I'm
just
glad
to
be
a
small
part
of
that.
So
so
thank
you
so
much
to
everyone.
A
F
Chairman
I'd
like
to
briefly
explain
my
eye
vote.
Yes,
kenny,
burdine,
thanks
for
all
your
work
and
your
continued
work
and
your
leadership
across
our
commonwealth,
the
the
application
of
the
knowledge
from
our
research
institution
down
to
the
farm
level
only
happens
through
talent
like
you,
and
we
appreciate
you
leading
in
that
effort.
Thank
you
and
I
proudly
vote
aye.
A
Aye
the
motion
carries.
There's
motion
for
consent,
got
a
motion
in
a
second
all
in
favor
of
consent
signified
saying
aye.
All
opposed
like
sign
and
emotion,
carries
kenneth.
Thank
you
for
being
here
with
us
today,
it'd
be
an
honor
to
have
you
on
the
ag
finance
board.
Thank
you
so
much
everyone
and
thank
you
senator
douglas.
Thank.
A
F
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
If
it's
appropriate
I'll
stay
up
here
to
present,
I
would
ask
for
favorable
expression
of
senate
resolution
115
for
brenda,
paul,
known
brenda
and
her
husband
austin
for
a
long
time,
and
my
two
resolutions
here
are
going
to
sound
like
a
broken
record.
F
The
paul's,
especially
brenda,
is
a
you
know:
a
pillar
in
the
bourbon
county
ag
community
pillar
in
the
state
ag
community
and
like
center
givens,
individual
lifelong
farmers
embedded
in
ag
and
great
addition
to
the
kentucky
ag
development
board,
and
I
really
like
this
committee.
This
is
one
of
those
real
good
committee
meetings.
Mr
chairman,
where
you
know
you
feel
the
love
peace,
hope
and
love
today
all
around,
but
just
just
a
really
good
lady
in
in
great
addition,
and
I
would
ask
for
favorable
expression,
115.
B
G
I
I
would
like
to
reiterate
the
word
said
about
brenda,
and
you
know
you
all
heard
from
suzanne.
She
was
here
personally
and
for
these
young.
Ladies
in
the
group,
I
think
it's
important
that
we
have
examples
of
what
women
in
agriculture
can
do
and
that
options
are
available
for
you
and
there
could
be
barriers
and
obstacles,
but
you
certainly
have
mentors,
and
these
are
women
that
you
can
call
on.
I
can
call
on
and
and
and
help
women
in
agriculture
do
like
they
do
in
every
other
business.
A
F
I
know
dave,
I
see
dave
maples
there
in
the
back.
I
think
he
fully
supports
this
this
person
for
the
committee.
Thank
you.
Senator.
A
A
is
senator
adams.
I
don't
think
she's
here
I'll.
A
Take
the
liberty
of
presenting
hers
for
mark
lynn
is
somebody
that
I
got
to
know
just
a
few
years
ago
and
mainly
got
to
know
him
here
in
this
ag
committee
meeting
and
there's
several
of
us
that
are
with
around
the
fair
board
that
know,
dr
lynn,
and
even
though
he
is
not
from
the
ag
community,
he
learned
pretty
quick
that
the
ag
community
doesn't
back
down
and
that's
that's
very
evident-
he's
been
a
great
friend
agriculture,
a
great
friend
to
jefferson
county,
and
if
you
look
at
the
lynn
stadium
and
the
contributions
he's
made,
he's
somebody
that's
that's
done
a
good
job,
his
service
on
the
board
and
he's
chair
of
the
state
fair
board.
A
So
with
that
I'll
make
a
motion
for
approval
of
senate
resolution
124.,
I've
got
a
second.
A
The
motion
of
consent
motion
is,
second,
all
in
favor
certified,
saying
aye
all
opposed
like
sign
and
it's
on
consent.
I
failed
to
I've
skipped
over
one,
sorry
about
that
senator
west,
but
senate
resolution
121.,
and
I
think
mr
penn,
maybe
his
own
virtual.
F
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
while
he's
getting
on
proud
to
introduce
the
senate
resolution
121
for
frank
penn
much
like
mrs
paul,
mr
penn
is
a
pillar
in
the
bourbon
county
ag
community
pillar
in
the
state
ag
community
and
lifelong
farmer
invested
in
ag.
F
This
would
be
an
appointment
to
the
kentucky
ag,
finance
corporation
board
of
directors
and
mr
penn,
I
believe,
does
cattle
horses,
tobacco
horses,
tobacco
cattle.
Whatever
order
you
want
to
put
them
in
has
for
years,
and
just
just
a
really
good
person
to
be
on
this
board
and-
and
I
believe
he
is
online
and
if
he
wants
to
say
a
few
words
that
would
be
wonderful.
P
Thank
you
senator
west.
I
I
appreciate
those
comments.
I'm
a
second
generation
farmer
who's
to
buy,
to
support
this
horse
habit
for
all
of
his
life
and
then,
when
the
bike
kind
of
went
down,
the
road,
horses
and
other
other
avenues,
sod
the
stuff
had
just
had
to
step
up.
P
The
price
of
our
land
has
gotten
the
point
to
where,
for
anybody
to
start
in
agriculture,
they've
got
to
have
a
leg
up
and
consistent
financing
over
fixed
task
or
fixed
term
is
is
a
great
way
to
help
our
young
farmers.
P
I
would
hope
that,
as
we
go
forward
with
the
maturity
of
both
the
ag
development
board
and
the
ag
finance
board
that
we're
not
just
trying
to
find
out
things
that
might
work
we're
finding
things
that
do
work
and
agriculture
will
be
certainly
better
off
going
forward
and
it's
a
bright
future
for
young
people
in
agriculture
and
I'm
proud
to
be
a
part
of
it.
Thank
you
for
your
nomination.
A
G
Having
that
institutional
knowledge
since
the
beginning
of
this,
and
that
we've
all
relied
on
for
advice
through
the
years
and
certainly
the
equine
livestock
community
is
thankful
to
have
him
there
and
you
know
we're
a
big
segment
of
the
kentucky
bottom
line
and
I
think
frank
is
a
good
steward
of
the
money
and
a
good
businessman,
and
I
appreciate
his
service.
So
I
fully
endorse
his
nomination.
C
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
like
so
many
members
of
this
committee,
mr
chairman,
I've
known
frank
penn
for
a
long
time
from
his
service
on
the
georgetown
college
board
of
trustees
through
his
involvement
with
the
farm
bureau
and
his
involvement
with
the
kentucky
equine
education
project.
You
haven't
lived,
mr
chairman,
until
you've
traveled
from
georgetown
to
frankfurt
on
I-64
and
passed
frank
penn,
driving
a
horse
van
driving
one
of
his
mares
to
be
bred
to
a
kentucky
stallion
that
that
is
dedication,
most
people,
most
people
don't
drive
their
vans
themselves.
C
They
hire
someone
else
to
do
it.
Frank
is
a
hands-on
farmer,
and
if
it's
in,
if
it's
an
order,
mr
chairman,
I
would
move,
I
would
move
for
passage
of
senate
resolution.
21,
121,
121.
A
I'm
going
to
explain
why
I
vote.
You
know
it's
an
honor
to
vote.
I
for,
for
somebody
like
frank
penn,
because
frank
is
one
of
those
I
served
on
with
a
lot
of
tobacco
committees.
A
I
saw
him
with
trying
to
transition
out
of
tobacco
and
other
things,
and
if
there
was
every
name
in
the
tobacco
circles,
especially
that
everybody
recognized
it
was
the
pen
name
and
what
frank
did
and
the
contributions
he's
made
to
that
and
then
carried
that
on
out
after
the
tobacco
on
the
ag
development
and
other
things
to
help
kentucky
transition
and
frank,
it's
an
honor
to
vote
eye
for
you
today.
A
A
Gonna
step
down
for
a
minute
now
and
turn
the
meeting
over
to
senator
cass.
A
Paul
horne
back
from
the
20th
district,
which
you
know,
I
don't
really
know
where
that's
at
anymore,
but
I
don't
think
I
live
in
my
district.
Thank
you.
Senator
thayer,
senate
resolution.
26
is
a
resolution.
We've
done
most
every
year.
It's
talk
it's
for
food
checkout
week,
which
is
february
20
through
the
26th.
A
It's
recognizing
the
farmers
for
helping
provide
citizens
with
the
most
nutritious
and
affordable
food
in
the
world
and
to
tell
you
how
important
food
is
and
I'm
not
going
to
read
the
whole
thing,
but
just
to
tell
you
how
important
food
is
and-
and
we've
heard
a
lot
on
the
news
lately
about
russia
and
ukraine-
and
I
wonder
most
people
are-
are
really
and
really
know
why
russia
is
thinking
about
invading
ukraine,
but
one
of
the
main
region
reasons
they
are
is
the
rich
agricultural
heritage
of
the
ukraine.
A
Russia
wants
to
stabilize
their
food
supply,
not
be
dependent
on
other
countries
for
food
supply,
and
one
of
the
main
reasons
they're
threatening
with
that
would
like
to
have
the
country
of
ukraine
is
for
the
abundant
food
supply
that
they
produce.
That's
the
importance
in
this
world.
That's
priced
on
agriculture
and
food
supply
and,
mr
chairman,
I
appreciate
that
and
if
it's
in
order
I'll
make
a
motion
for
passage
of
senate
resolution
26.,
we.
K
Explain
my
eye
vote
real,
quick.
You
know
the
food
check
out
checkoff
week.
I
can
see
the
blue
jackets
sitting
down
here
in
the
crowd,
and
I
can
remember
when
I
was
in
high
school
and
we
would
work
the
grocery
that
week
and
help
bag
the
goods
and
stuff,
and
I
think
something
significant
to
even
bring
a
little
more
to
it.
Is
you
know?
K
Not
only
do
we
have
the
most
abundant
food
supply
in
this
country,
but
we
have
some
of
the
cheapest
food
in
the
world,
and
this
week
also
signifies
the
amount
of
time
that
an
average
family
normally
would
work
from
the
beginning
of
the
year
to
now
to
be
able
to
pay
for
its
food
for
the
entire
year
versus
other
nations
in
the
world
that
don't
have
this.
They
have
to
work
so
many
more
days
to
be
able
to
have
the
kind
of
food
supply
we
have.
K
So
next
on
the
agenda
is
senate
bill
148.
Q
Pardon
me
guys
this
is
matthew
gosnell
from
app
harvest.
I'm
state
and
local
director
of
government
affairs.
A
A
Now
I
might
put
a
shout
out
to
building
and
housing
director
or
commissioner
rick
rand
and
how
well
they
worked
with
us
this
year
on
trying
to
get
this
done,
we're
trying
to
make
some
exemptions.
As
you
all
well
know,
app
harvest
runs
a
large
greenhouse
facility,
controlled
environment
facility
for
growing
tomatoes
and
they're,
also
expanding
into
greens
and
berries
and
some
other
things.
We've
got
another
group,
that's
just
announced
they're
coming
into
northern
kentucky.
A
To
do
much
same
thing
and
in
the
past,
we've
had
exemptions
on
the
sprinkler
systems
and
that
for
the
girl,
growing
area,
but
not
for
the
pack
houses
and
if
any
of
you
all
better
ever
been
to
one
of
these
facilities,
and
I'm
sure
senator
carpenter
has
because
he's
got
a
big
one
right
there.
Next
to
him,
you
know,
there's
not
much
chance
of
fire
or
damage
or
something
in
those
buildings
the
way
they're
set
up
and
with
what
the
materials
that
they
use.
A
I
might
say
that
in
this
we
do
allow
for
them
not
to
have
some
of
the
extensive
sprinklers
they've
got
in
those
pack
house
areas.
We
still
do
require
the
sprinklers
senator
gibbons
in
some
of
the
places
like
where
they
have
the
turbines
and
fuels
stored
and
those
type
of
things.
A
Q
Sir,
thank
you
so
much,
mr
chairman,
and
thank
you
for
your
consideration
today.
Everyone,
you
know
we're
the
new
kid
on
the
block
in
agriculture
in
the
state.
We've
been
very
lucky
to
be
have
a
lot
of
support
from
a
lot
of
you
guys,
a
lot
of
local
business
and
local
policy
makers.
This
seeks
to
define
what
controlled
environment
agriculture
is,
and
this
is
going
to
be
really
helpful
for
more
than
just
the
building
code,
we
had
trouble
upfront
with
with
financing
institutions.
Talking
about
you
know,
manufacturing
versus
industrial
versus
agriculture.
Q
We
think
this
helps
make
the
case.
This
is
firmly
agriculture.
We
think
that
this
is
going
to
establish
kentucky
as
a
place
where
this
is
going
to
thrive
going
forward,
and
we
think
this
is
going
to
be
a
first
step
to
really
unleashing
what
the
potential
for
10
billion
dollar
sector,
where
we
think
this
controlled
environment
space
is
going
in
the
years
ahead.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
F
Mr
chairman,
briefly
and
thank
you-
and
I
think
your
explanation
probably
alleviated
my
concerns-
not
that
they're
high-level
concerns,
but
really
all
we're
doing
is
a
definition
here.
O
Senator
carpenter,
senator
hornbeck,
thank
you
for
bringing
it
up.
It
is
in
my
district
there's
two
big
facilities
and
one
in
berea
right
beside
one
of
my
farms
that
I
that
I
have
so
I
drive
by
it
pretty
often
and
another
one
out
in
the
county.
That's
a
huge
facility.
It's
been
a
big
part
of
our
community
and
we're
glad
to
have
them,
but
this
is
I'm
in
the
construction
business.
This
isn't
about
a
safety
issue
or
putting
people
in
harm.
O
It's
just
about
making
sure
that
you're
providing
a
cost-effective
way
to
be
able
to
provide
a
service,
and
you
know,
there's
not
a
need
for
these.
Sometimes
the
building
codes
get
kind
of
crazy
and
it's
a
one.
One
hat
fits
everybody
and
that's
not
the
case,
and
so
it
it's
cost
prohibitive
to
provide
some
of
these
things.
So,
like
senator
gibbons
said
this
just
gives
that
definition
to
be
able
to
do
that.
So
it's
not
about
safety.
O
Sometimes
people
think
that
we're
doing
things,
that's
gonna,
put
people's
lives
in
danger
and
that's
not
what
we're
doing
at
all.
We're
just
wanting
to
make
sure
that
we're
allowing
them
to
provide
a
service
and
be
able
to
afford
to
be
able
to
do
it,
but
these
facilities
are
amazing
if
you
guys
have
not
seen
one.
It's
a
state
of
the
art
they've
put
this
one
up
in
in
berea,
it's
probably
about
25
acres
under
roof,
and
it
just
every
time
I
drive
by
there.
O
K
G
Q
Yes,
the
the
way
they
the
challenge
here
is
is
the
dual
use.
The
way
the
housing
building
code
looks
at
one
facility
and
potential
more
than
one
use
under
one
roof.
That
is
fairly
unique
in
kentucky.
So
this
is
a
way
to
look
at
just
this
sector
and
say
this
doesn't
really
make
a
lot
of
sense
for
for
controlled
environment
ag,
but
this
does
exist
in
places
like
west
virginia
north
carolina,
michigan,
california,
arizona
places
that
have
attracted
billions
of
dollars
in
control,
environment
investment.
So.
G
Q
Yes,
ma'am.
We
have
shared
language
already
and
had
multiple
meetings
with
the
building
code
folks
and
have
talked
through
the
specifics
of
that
technical
language,
how
they
would
look
at
us
and
it's
not
so
much
an
exemption
as
just
declaring
that
we're
gonna
probably
be
a
low
hazard
factory,
as
opposed
to
moderate,
because
we
have
cardboard
in
there
that
supports
our
plants
and
water.
So.
Q
K
You
know:
we've
had
some
folks
in
our
district
that
have
dealt
with
things
that
are
very
similar
to
this
being
a
large
agriculture
district
and
sometimes
when
it
falls
on
the
umbrella,
the
building
code.
You
know
agriculture
is
growing
to
an
industrial
size
things,
but
sometimes
don't
need
to
necessarily
follow
those
same
things,
and
so
I
think
what
you're
doing
here
is
a
good
definition
change
to
be
able
to
just
help
clear
that
up
and
be
able
to
help
the
ag
industry
as
well.
K
A
B
K
It
passes
so
just
a
few
announcements
here
before
we
adjourn
so
next
week.
We
will
not
be
having
an
ag
committee
meeting
due
to
it
being
a
short
week
and
I
would
encourage
everybody.
That's
listening
at
home.
That's
in
the
crowd!
This
week
we
have
david
beck
here,
the
ceo
of
our
kentucky
exposition
center
and
one
of
the
biggest
weeks
in
our
communities
going
on
here
in
the
state
that
brings
people
from
all
over
the
world.
K
The
farm
machinery
show
I
can
remember,
going
as
a
kid
getting
pulled
around
a
little
red
rider
wagon
and
look
forward
to
taking
my
kids
this
year,
and
so
we
thank
you
for
being
here
and
hope.
You
have
a
wonderful
week
and
hope
we
pull
people
from
all
over
to
come
see
what
the
great
state
of
kentucky
has
to
offer.
A
K
M
Well,
thank
you
and
I'll
be
brief,
but
if
you
have
questions
I'll
be
glad
to
try
to
address
those
kentucky
venues
on
the
state
fair
board,
we
we
have
about
325
events
a
year
about
125
at
our
downtown
convention
center
and
about
200
exposition
centers.
So
that's
a
lot
of
people
about
4
million
people
coming
through
our
properties
prior
to
covet.
M
We
finished
this
last
year
at
about
75
percent
of
what
we
work
at
kobe,
so
we're
coming
back
we're
growing
the
business,
but
to
give
you
just
an
idea
how
important
the
national
farm
machinery
show
is
of
those
325
events.
This
one
show
that
lasts
for
four
days
is
about
20
percent
of
our
operating
revenue
at
one
show
itself
is
that
important
to
demonstrate
the
importance
of
agriculture
to
the
commonwealth
in
our
nation.
So
it's
pretty
exciting
to
see
that,
and
this
week
we
open
at
nine
o'clock.
Each
morning
we
close
at
five.
M
We
have
the
tractor
pull
every
night
at
seven
and
at
noon
on
saturday,
so
hopefully
people
will
come
and
be
a
part
of
it.
I
was
telling
our
staff
the
other
day
our
management
team,
that
much
of
what
we
enjoy
in
our
homes
and
our
businesses
in
our
society
of
forest
technology
and
industry
came
from
agriculture.
A
farmer
had
an
idea,
they
developed
it.
Maybe
an
agribusiness
took
it
to
the
next
level
or
one
of
our
universities
did
some
research.
M
That's
how
things
will
progress,
and
so
you
look
at
a
lot
of
things
we
utilize
every
day.
Much
of
it
started
in
that
production,
so
we'll
have
a
lot
of
non-ag
people
coming
in
as
well,
and
I
think
that's
important
as
part
of
our
mission
to
tell
the
story.
Let
me
just
mention
something
briefly,
some
of
our
goals
that
we
have
for
our
facilities
and
what
we're
trying
to
do.
Our
goal
is
to
take
care
of
our
client
and
we
compete
with
people,
not
just
in
north
america,
but
even
around
the
world
for
business.
M
To
do
that,
you
have
to
have
good
facilities,
competitive
facilities,
but
also
you
have
to
have
good
people
to
be
able
to
provide
the
service,
and
we
have
to
take
care
of
both
of
those
and
that's
been
a
challenge,
but
also
one
of
our
goals
to
continue
to
work.
To
their
end,
we
ask
our
people
every
day
to
work
like
their
job
depends
on
it
make
decisions
like
they
owned.
It
bring
some
private
concept
sector
concepts
to
the
marketplace
that
we
can
utilize
to
move
forward.
M
I
just
want
to
mention
that
one
of
our
goals,
in
addition
to
that
is,
is
to
be
profitable.
If
you
go
back
and
look
at
our
results
over
the
last
four
years,
you've
got
to
go
back
several
years
to
see
us
moving
in
that
direction.
Our
goal
is
even
though
we
generate
a
lot
of
tax
money
for
the
commonwealth
and
provide
a
lot
of
jobs.
Our
goal
is
to
get
back
to
eventually
like
it
was
many
years
ago
where
annually
these
properties
can
send
frankfurt
to
check,
and
I
think
we'll
get
to
that
point.
M
The
north
american
largest
purebred
livestock
show
in
the
country
the
championship
horse
show
well
known
throughout
the
world
one
of
the
biggest
we
even
had
the
largest
rock
concert
in
north
america,
so
we
do
lots
of
business
and
lots
of
facilities,
and
some
of
the
largest
trade
shows
and
thank
you
to
the
members
of
general
assembly
for
all
the
support
you
provided
much
that
we've
been
accomplished.
The
last
two
or
three
years
will
not

Thank
you

understanding
its
value.
Thank

M
A
Short
comment,
mr
chairman,
for
you
before
you
go
and
david
mitch
has
touched
on
it
just
a
little
bit.
67
percent
of
the
bookings
for
hotels
in
jefferson
county
are
due
to
kentucky
venues.
Isn't
that
correct.
A
That
that
much
of
the
bookings
for
hotel
rooms
are
due
to
that
facility,
so
you
can
see
the
economic
impact
it
has
directly
to
jefferson
county,
but
it's
to
all
the
other
counties
around
there
too.
So
you
know
that's
a
great
facility
down
there.
It's
one
that
we
have
to
keep
up.
We've
got
other
facilities
around
the
nation
that
we've
got
to
compete
with
that
are
spend
well
over
a
billion
dollars
on
remodeling
their
facilities
and
upgrading
their
facilities.
So
it's
something
we
need
to
look
at.
K
You
know
and
chairman
we
we
talk
about
economic
impact.
I
know
in
my
community
there
in
owensboro
there's
a
lot
of
businesses
that
will
close
this
week,
because
they're
attending
the
farm
machinery
show
and
they're
exhibiting
there
and
they've
got
their
companies
there
representing
them,
and
I
know
it's
meant
a
lot
to
me.
I
remember
the
first
time
I
got
that
10
by
10
booth
in
the
south
wing
at
20
years
old,
as
a
young
whipper
snapper
getting
in
the
business
and
the
amount
of
people
that
you
could
reach
in
that
four
day.
