Local business leaders rail against KCDC, DFI budget cuts in ad and comments to the city

Last month, the Franklin County Fiscal Court decided to cut its funding of the Kentucky Capital Development Corporation (KCDC) by $15,000 for a second year straight. After not cutting KCDC last year, the city caught up with the county for this year’s proposed budget, as it slashed the organization’s funding by $30,000. It also cut funding for Downtown Frankfort Inc. (DFI) by $45,500. An item of consideration for the county’s decision regarding KCDC was a letter penned by Jim Daniel, James Inman and other “concerned citizens,” sent to elected officials in May. That letter was critical of KCDC’s productivity, direction and integrity; it particularly honed in on KCDC President/CEO Terri Bradshaw’s performance.
