SB 2984 was a bill introduced in the state legislature on March 14, 2025 that proposed to appropriate funds from the state's general fund to the City of Lexington for certain infrastructure improvement projects. The bill died in committee and did not advance further in the legislative process.
The main purpose of SB 2984 was to provide dedicated state funding to support critical infrastructure upgrades and repairs in the City of Lexington. The bill aimed to address longstanding issues with the city's aging roads, bridges, water/sewer systems, and other public facilities by allocating state resources to these projects.
The key provisions of SB 2984 included:
If enacted, SB 2984 would have provided a significant influx of state funding to support critical infrastructure upgrades in Lexington. This could have led to improvements in public safety, reduced maintenance costs, and enhanced quality of life for residents. However, the bill did not advance out of committee, so the proposed funding never materialized.
SB 2984 had two companion bills introduced in the state House of Representatives:
- HB 144: Identical bill proposing the same $75 million appropriation
- HB 2745: Alternative bill seeking $50 million in state funding for Lexington infrastructure
These related bills also did not progress beyond the committee stage.
