The public is invited to participate in two hearings later this month regarding proposed changes to property located at 10201 Brownsboro Road. The revised detailed district development plan would permit the construction of a grocery store. The proposal also includes an outlot near the Ballardsville Road/Brownsboro Road intersection and subdividing off another part of the property to the east, though there are no plans for that parcel yet. The variance being considered by the Board of Zoning Adjustment would allow the grocery store to exceed the 150' setback along Ballardsville Road. Please contact the case manager listed above with any questions or comments.

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) is developing a project to improve Shelbyville Road between Old Shelbyville Road and North English Station Road/Urton Lane. The project would also look at the adjacent traffic signals at Eastgate Shopping Center and I-265. The purpose of this work would be to decrease congestion, improve safety, and increase the road's capacity.
KYTC's team has reviewed existing conditions and previous input from stakeholders to develop some preliminary concepts. Potential changes could include corridor-wide improvements, intersection-specific reconfigurations, and a no-build option. KYTC would like to have your input as well. You can view the StoryMap here to get an idea of what is proposed and why and then complete a short survey here. The survey will be open through November 18.
