For the purposes of administering KRS 241.066 and 241.067:

(1) The population data shall be based on a wet county's or city's annual population

estimates prepared by the Kentucky State Data Center at the University of

Louisville in every year except a federal decennial census year. The federal

decennial census figures of population shall be used in a census year; and

(2) (a) On or before January 1 of each year, the department shall obtain the

population figures of all wet counties and cities as of that date for

determination of the number of quota licenses available.

(b) If a quota retail license vacancy is created by an increase in population or any

other reason, the department shall publish notice of the vacancy and

information on how to apply for the license within sixty (60) days in the

newspaper used for the legal notices of that county or city.

(c) The department shall accept applications for a quota retail license vacancy not

later than thirty (30) days following the date on which the public notice is

published.
