Mainly informal, ad hoc. Communication between the General Assembly and the KYTC is not formalized, but exists on more of an ad hoc basis. The secretary has an open-door policy for legislators and, with other KYTC administrators, is available to legislative staffers. Administrators regularly meet with legislators and appear before legislative committees. The KYTC has some formal reporting requirements to the General Assembly. The KYTC employs a dedicated legislative liaison, who regularly gives input to legislators-including bill sponsors and Senate and House transportation committee chairs-and testifies at committee meetings.
