Welcome to Barren River Area Development District
The Barren River Area Development District is one of fifteen ADDs in Kentucky that comprise a statewide network of multi-county planning and development organizations. BRADD local governments provided technical assistance, training programs and publications covering a wide range of applicable subjects including financial management, personnel management, general government operations, legal issues, recreation planning, criminal justice planning, legislative services and technical newsletters through the Public Administration Specialist. Unlike many other organizations structured along multi-jurisdictional lines, the ADDs have both federal and state statutory authority (KRS 147A). Throughout this web page, the specific services of the BRADD are detailed. A general summary of some of these services are as follows:
