Updates from Office of Community Development

Hello!

The Office of Community Development hopes that you and your family are healthy and safe during these challenging times. Given the state of emergency declared by Mayor Greg Fischer related to the Coronavirus, the Office of Community Development’s staff has been conducting business via telework. Until in-office services resume, please know that we are available via phone or email to address your needs and concerns.

Remember, our website – www.louisvilleky.gov/vacant - continues to contain updated vacant property information as well. We have uploaded a short list of activities related to vacant properties that you can do while you are staying healthy at home – click here to learn more!

Finally, be sure to mark down on your calendar these upcoming opportunities:
