Hiking and biking portions of the event will still take place as planned
LOUISVILLE (September 1, 2021) – Mayor Greg Fischer announced today that the paddling portion of the Mayor’s Hike, Bike and Paddle, presented by Norton Healthcare and Coca Cola Consolidated, has been cancelled due to dangerous conditions on the Ohio River.
The U.S. Coast Guard, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have all indicated that an anticipated increased flow from the McAlpine Locks, combined with high water concerns, have the potential to create problems for paddlers.
The river level is predicted to be over 13 feet by this weekend due to the aftereffects of Hurricane Ida, which caused widespread damage and devastation along the Louisiana coast.
“One of the great things about Hike, Bike and Paddle is that it’s outdoors and allows for social distancing, mask-wearing and other COVID precautions. So, having to cancel this portion is disappointing,” the Mayor said. “However, it’s clearly necessary to keep our paddlers safe.”
The Tai Chi portion of Hike, Bike, and Paddle also was cancelled because of the difficulty in social distancing. Hiking and biking portions will go on as planned at the new location at the Community Boat House at 1325 River Road. Biking will start at 9:00 a.m., and yoga and Zumba will begin at 8:00 a.m., adhering to social distancing guidelines.

Neighborhood Meeting for 8000 Broad Run Road
https://content.govdelivery.com/attachments/KYLOUISVILLE/2021/08/30/file_attachments/1919906/Neigh%20Mtg%20Notice_8000%20Broad%20Run%20Rd_08.30.21.pdf
RE: Follow-up neighborhood meeting to the one held on October 14, 2020 revising the previous subdivision/development
plan and zone change to now request R-5 (instead of PRD) rezoning on 190 acres of property located along the west
and south side of Broad Run Road at 8000 Broad Run Rd
We are writing to notify you of an upcoming, follow-up “neighborhood meeting” regarding the above referenced project.
Because of the COVID-19 emergency orders requiring and/or recommending social distancing, the neighborhood meeting
will be held virtually. The details are set forth in this letter and the supporting attachments. If you cannot obtain access to
the virtual meeting, we may be able to assist you in that regard or otherwise assure a telephone or in-person conversation.
The applicant, Highgates Development, previously filed an application for subdivision approval with rezoning from R-4 &
RR to PRD. However, we are now revising that application to request a zone change to R-5. To that end, the applicant has
revised the plan and will be filing this revised plan with Metro Planning and Design Services (PDS). The original plan
consisted of 805 attached and detached single family lots, whereas this plan consists of 590 detached single family lots - -
a 25% deduction. The original plan contained 51 acres of open space, whereas the revised plan contains 69 acres of open
space - - a 35% increase.
The case number assigned to this rezoning is 20-ZONE-0122, and Jay Luckett is the assigned PDS case manager. The
purpose of this follow-up neighbor meeting is to show neighbors the changes made to the plan and address any questions
or concerns related thereto.
This follow-up virtual meeting will be held on Monday, September 13th beginning at 6:30 p.m.
Enclosed for your review are the following:
1. The subdivision/development plan sheet
2. LOJIC site location zoning map sheet showing the location of the site
3. Detailed summary sheet of the project
4. Contact information sheet
5. Instruction sheet on how to join the virtual meeting.
6. Information sheet on how to obtain case information online from PDS’ online customer service
7. PDS’ “After the Neighborhood Meeting” sheet
If you are unable to attend the virtual meeting, or have any questions or comments, please feel free to email or call either
one of us, or contact the PDS case manager listed on the attached contact information sheet.
We look forward to our opportunity to visit virtually or by phone.

Crews installing new LED lighting in Cochran Hill Tunnels
LOUISVILLE, KY (Sept. 3, 2021) - The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) District 5 Office advises motorists of the multiple scheduled weekend closures of a portion of I-64 in Jefferson County starting next week. I-64 East and West will be closed to upgrade and install LED lighting in the Cochran Hill Tunnels (mile marker 8.4). The roadway closure is scheduled for the following weekends:
- Friday, September 10 at 9 p.m. and continue through Monday, September 13 at 5 a.m.
- Friday, September 17 at 9 p.m. and continue through Monday, September 20 at 5 a.m.

- I-64 East: take Grinstead Drive (Exit 8) to Lexington Road to Cannons Lane and reconnect with I-64
This LED upgrade is a continuation of an existing project announced at the end of 2020, which also includes replacing thousands of lower-efficiency roadway fixtures across the commonwealth by early 2022. Altogether, KYTC plans to replace more than 18,000 lights with new LEDs (light-emitting diodes), which last longer and require less energy yet provide greater visibility. Also, as a part of this LED upgrade, KYTC crews will be cleaning the tunnel to ensure proper maintenance.
The date and duration of this work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen delays occur.
