“These projects will benefit our Kentucky families and provide greater accessibility to our parks,†said Gov. Beshear. “Investing in our outdoor spaces is investing in the well-being of Kentuckians.â€
Airline Road Sports Complex (Phase II)

Phase II will include the construction of six baseball diamonds, two multi-purpose fields, one concession area, parking lots, lighting, as well as pedestrian walkways. The project will provide a centralized location for youth sports leagues.
“This land and water grant is an important piece of the financing plan for our new youth sports park,†said Henderson Mayor Steve Austin. “It’s a rather expensive venture overall, but very valuable to our community in years to come. It will serve our community with youth sports facilities for baseball, football, soccer and lacrosse. The sports park will be a 60-acre facility that will be constructed in three phases with phase one starting immediately.â€
Sandy Lee Watkins Park Restroom Facilities

“Sandy Lee Watkins Park has become a favorite destination for local anglers, walkers, horseback riders, families and nature enthusiasts,†said Henderson County Judge/Executive Brad Schneider. “Every year more and more folks are enjoying its amenities. We appreciate all those who helped make this funding opportunity possible.â€

Gov. Holcomb Calls A Special Session To Return $1 Billion To Hoosier Taxpayers
INDIANAPOLIS – Governor Eric J. Holcomb today signed a proclamation calling a special session for the General Assembly to convene on July 6, 2022, to take action on his plan to return more than $1 billion of state reserves to Hoosier taxpayers.
“This is the fastest, fairest and most efficient way to return taxpayers’ hard-earned money during a time of economic strain,†said Gov. Holcomb. “Indiana’s economy is growing and with more than $1 billion of revenue over current projections, Hoosier taxpayers deserve to have their money responsibly returned. I’m happy to be able to take this first step and look forward to signing this plan into law as soon as possible.â€
Each taxpayer would collect about $225 in addition to the $125 Hoosiers are currently receiving from the state’s automatic taxpayer refund (ATR). All told, each eligible Hoosier would receive about $350; a married couple filing jointly would receive about \$700.
