KRS 67A.872 to 67A.894, that benefits conferred by construction of a project are

wastewater collection project. (2) "Benefited property, and property to be benefited" mean the property (land only) proposed to be benefited by construction of a wastewater collection project

any other physical devices or appurtenances in connection with, or reasonably
attendant to, such projects; (c) The provision or making available sewer collection services to benefited property by providing sewer facilities to such benefited property although not
