Kentuckians for Better Transportation issued a statement Tuesday saying Executive Director Leslie Combs’ last day with the organization was Saturday, Aug. 31. Combs was hired by KBT in April 2019.

In only 4 months as our Executive Director, she had already begun to make a positive impact on our members, committees and in advancing the transportation issues that we all embrace. We wish her well and are thankful for the time that she served as our Executive Director. The Executive Committee is meeting to discuss next steps and will have an update for the Board on September 13th.

The need to reach out to our elected officials has never been greater. In preparation for the 2020 state legislative session, each of us must personally contact our state, county and city representatives.

Now is the time…”
