A mockup of Kentucky?s first e-Transparency Web site is now online and members of the public are being asked to make comments on its design. ?Kentucky?s Open Door? Web site has been designed as a one-stop venue where citizens can review how their tax dollars are being spent, as well as obtain other vital information about state-funded programs.
Following the links below, you can review the Task Force's draft legal policy, and you can scroll through draft "mockups" of the site's features. You can also try out searching for samples of state contract information by logging onto the Vendor Income and Expense Watch (V.I.E.W.) page, a pioneering effort by Treasurer Todd Hollenbach, which will allow citizens to search the state?s vendor and contractor data. Secretary of State Trey Grayson has also produced a model of agency transparency with ?Check it Out Kentucky!? a site that offers an expenditure search of the Secretary of State?s Office.
