AI Summary

This bill amends Kentucky Revised Statute (KRS) 75.160, which pertains to fire protection districts, by updating the language to be gender-neutral. Specifically, it inserts "or she" after "he" when referring to the chief of the fire department and after "his" when referring to the sheriff and their deputies, ensuring that the law applies equally regardless of gender. This change aims to modernize legal language and promote inclusivity within the context of fire department leadership and law enforcement powers granted to fire department members.
