Quote:A state board restocked last week with new appointees by Gov. Matt Bevin has quietly approved the long-sought tax incentives worth up to $18 million for the controversial Noah’s Ark theme park due to open this summer in Grant County.
Basically, Bevin asked for tax breaks from a state appointed board. They said "hey, we've got a pension crisis and other stuff to do... so, no."
Bevin fired them, appointed a new board and the new paid appointees said "how many millions can we give them?"
