Dear Neighbor:
We are writing to invite you to a meeting we have scheduled to present neighbors with our zone change and Detailed District Development Plan (DDDP) to allow a coffee shop to be located as above.
Accordingly, we filed a plan for pre-application review with the Division of Planning and Design Services (DPDS) that was assigned case number, 22-ZONEPA-0123 and case manager, Dante St. Germain. The proposed coffee shop will be 510 sq ft with 2 drive thru lanes. Access to the site will be from Laurel Ridge Road, with no access from Outer Loop. We would like to show and explain this plan so that we might hear what thoughts, issues and concerns you may have.
In that regard, a meeting will be held on Tuesday, September 27, 2022, beginning at 6:30 p.m. at Okolona Church of Christ located at 6105 Outer Loop, Louisville, Kentucky.
Enclosed for your review are the following:
1. The 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, and Information on how to obtain case information online from PDS’ online customer service portal
5. PDS’ “After the Neighborhood Meeting” sheet
If you are unable to attend the meeting, or have any questions or comments, please feel free to email or call me at the number listed above.
We look forward to our opportunity to visit with you.
Sincerely,
Nick Pregliasco

 Understanding the issues around suicide and mental health is an important way to take part in suicide prevention.
Helping others who may be in crisis can make a difference and save lives.
• Research shows that people having thoughts of suicide feel relief when someone asks after them in a caring, nonjudgmental way. It’s important to ask, “Are you thinking about hurting yourself?”
• Reduce a suicidal person’s access to lethal items. While it’s not always easy, asking if the at-risk person has a plan, and removing firearms or medications, will help.
• Contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988 via call or text and/or make a connection with a trusted person like a family member, friend, spiritual advisor or mental health professional.
• Keeping in touch with the at-risk person after a crisis or discharge from treatment can help reduce that person’s risk.

Agency has less than five open kennels and almost 100 adoptable cats and dogs
Louisville Metro Animal Services (LMAS) shelter is operating at maximum capacity again, creating an urgent need to reduce the kennel population. To make room for the ongoing influx of stray pets, LMAS announces WAIVED reclaim fees for unclaimed pets; and FREE adoptions for all cats, kittens, dogs, and puppies. Every dog adoption also includes a large bag of food.
In the past two weeks, LMAS has taken in 330 stray cats and dogs.
“Shelters nationwide are struggling and we really need community members to foster or adopt a dog. Maintaining our No-Kill status takes a village, and our city shelter can’t do it without you,” said Ashley Book, interim shelter director. “We’re asking owners who are searching for a missing pet to visit the shelter. If you are planning to add a new four-legged friend to your family, make Animal House Adoption Center your first stop.”
Adoption fees are waived for approved adopters, thanks to the non-profit, Friends of Metro Animal Services (FOMAS) and the Pay It Forward Free Adoptions Program.
Spay-Neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included. Approved adopters can also foster-to-adopt eligible dogs. Adoption fees are waived but there is still a review and approval process. Jefferson County residents must also purchase a one-year renewable pet license, a requirement of the Louisville Metro Animal Ordinance. LMAS’ Animal House Adoption Center is located at 3516 Newburg Road. Walk-ins are welcome from 12-6pm daily and Fridays until 7pm.
Redemption fees are waived for unclaimed pet. Owners can claim their impounded pet Monday-Saturday from 12-6pm, at the LMAS Harshaw Family Foundation Shelter, located at 3528 Newburg Road. Redemption fees will only be waived for pet owners with no previous violations, and cover microchipping, spay-neuter, licensing and vaccination fees. Court fees will not be waived. LMAS will work with owners who have outstanding balances and want to reclaim their pet.
To view adoptable pets or stray pets currently at the LMAS Shelter, visit louisvilleky.gov/animalservices.
