Meetings

Regular meetings of the Louisville and Southern Indiana Bridges Authority are held on a quarterly basis.  The schedule of regular quarterly meetings can be found here.  In addition, special meetings may be called on a more frequent basis by the Chair and Co-Chair.  These meetings are announced in advance and are posted on this page of the website.  The primary focus of each meeting is to continue the development of a financial plan for the Ohio River Bridges Project.   Meetings are open to the public with a designated time for public comments.  Because these are primarily business meetings of the authority, and not public hearings, the number of speakers and the time allotted to speak may be limited.
