The West Liberty climate, from a business owner’s view

West Liberty weather, in normals: July highs around 86°F, January lows around 22°F, measured at Liberty, 2.5 miles away (1991-2020). About 47 inches of rain and melted snow fall in a normal year, most of it in July. The high reaches 90°F or more on about 30 days a year, and the low falls to freezing or below on about 141 days.

A website that changes with the season helps: new hours, a seasonal service, a storm notice, requested by email at no extra charge.

Kentucky and federal rules for small business websites

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Kentucky rules as any other.

• A federal rule (16 CFR Part 465) makes it unlawful to write, buy or sell fake reviews and testimonials, so the reviews on a business website have to be real. 16 CFR Part 465
• Kentucky sales and use tax is 6% of gross receipts, and there are no local sales and use taxes anywhere in the state. Kentucky Department of Revenue
• Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, businesses open to the public must make their goods and services accessible to people with disabilities, and the Justice Department’s guidance says that includes their websites. ADA.gov guidance

Rules change and details vary by business; this is general information, not legal advice.
