Elizabethtown City CouncilÂÂÂwoman Julia SpringÂsteen is looking forward to her duties as part of the Kentucky Animal Control Advisory Board following her recent appointment.
According to its website, the board was established in 1998 by an act of the Kentucky General Assembly. The duties of the board include making recommendations to the Kentucky Commissioner of Agriculture relating to animal control issues, evaluating applications for disbursement of animal care and control money, establishing shelter standards, and creating training programs, the website said.
Springsteen said the board takes the money generated from the stateâs spay and neuter license plates and uses it for grants to counties and to animal shelters for spaying and neutering. They also do training of animal care and control officers and give money, when there is money, to counties for building animal shelters, she said.

State senators voted Monday to strip the Kentucky Board of Education of its new non-voting student and teacher members.
Gov. Andy Beshear added the teacher position when he reorganized the board upon taking office in December 2019, appointing Rowan County special education teacher Allison Slone. He later added the student member: Jefferson County Public Schools student Solyana Mesfin, a junior at Eastern High School. Mesfin and Slone serve in an ex-officio, or non-voting advisory capacity, along with Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman and Council on Postsecondary Education president Aaron Thompson.
The bill passed by the Senate Monday would reorganize the board again requiring members of both major political parties. It would also require equal representation of men and women and “racial minority” representation based on the “total racial minority population” of the state.
