grand jurors, petit jurors and persons summoned for jury service in Circuit Court eligible
for payment of the compensation designated in KRS 29A.170(1) shall be paid, in addition
thereto, the sum of seven dollars and fifty cents ($7.50) per day as reimbursement of
expenses incurred, which sum is hereby determined to be the equivalent of the minimum
daily expenses reasonably to be incurred by such juror or person. Payment of such
reimbursement for expenses may be made beginning as of such date prior to July 1, 1976,
but not prior to July 1, 1974, as may be fixed by the Governor upon recommendation of
the secretary of justice and public safety if and to the extent that prior to July 1, 1976, the
Commonwealth of Kentucky is awarded grant funds by the Law Enforcement Assistance
Administration of the United States Department of Justice on a matching basis of not less
than ninety percent (90%) federal funds and ten percent (10%) state funds which grant
funds are sufficient to pay the full cost of the reimbursement of expenses, and of the
administrative expenses related thereto, authorized by this section from the date so fixed
through June 30, 1976. Eligible state funds appropriated for the 1974-1976 biennium may
be used for matching purposes so long as such use does not reduce the level of services
provided in the executive budget for that biennium. Effective: June 26, 2007
