Summary — SR 212: Confirmation of Robb W. Adams to the Kentucky Housing Corporation Board of Directors

Overview

SR 212 is a Senate resolution confirming the gubernatorial appointment of Robb W. Adams to the Kentucky Housing Corporation (KHC) Board of Directors. The resolution is purely a confirmation measure (not a statute that creates new policy) and was adopted by the Senate by a recorded vote of 38–0.

  • Directs the Clerk of the Senate to forward a copy of the resolution and notification of its adoption to Robb W. Adams of Carrollton, Carroll County, Kentucky, and to Governor Andy Beshear (Section 2).
  • States that the appointment was made by Executive Order 2024-834 on December 13, 2024, in accordance with KRS 198A.030, and that the appointment is subject to Senate confirmation.
  • Records that Mr. Adams meets the statutory requirements of KRS 198A.030 and is appointed to represent the interests of local government.

  • Statutory reference: KRS 198A.030 (board composition/qualifications).
  • Role on board: Representative of local government interests (as required under the cited statute).

Who is affected

  • Kentucky Housing Corporation — the board retains a member who represents local government perspectives for KHC’s governance and decision-making.
  • Indirectly, local governments and stakeholders involved with affordable housing and housing finance in Kentucky may be affected through board decisions in which Mr. Adams participates.

The resolution itself does not change KHC authority, budget, or program rules.
