The Clifton & Crescent Hill Area Plan is ready to begin the adoption process! The plan has been updated to reflect all comments that were received during the public comment period and can be viewed on the website at https://louisvilleky.gov/government/advanced-planning/clifton-crescent-hill-area-plan. The adoption process generally takes 8-10 weeks based on the available dates for public hearings and meetings, and will begin with the Planning Committee of the Planning Commission next Monday, October 23rd, at 1:00p.m. This meeting will be virtual, and anyone is welcome to join via the link on the above website. The next meeting, which will be the full Planning Commission, will be scheduled after the Planning Committee meeting. All future meeting dates and information will be posted to the website.
We always welcome support from the neighborhoods during the adoption process! Planning Committee and Planning Commission are the best opportunity to voice your support in person, as public comment is generally not heard at Metro Council meetings. In addition, letters of support can be an effective way to express neighborhood approval to the Planning Commission and Metro Council.
Gas relocation work is continuing and LG&E is anticipating completing work on the west side of Hubbards Lane at the Verizon store near US 60, the week after Thanksgiving.
Metro is hoping to receive approval for additional funds and approval next month in order to allow the consultant to finalize design on the north side of the CSX railroad, for some needed drainage improvements.
Once the design work has been reviewed and approved by CSX, Metro can finalize the agreement for construction in CSX’s R/W and obtain the needed easements required for the work and maintenance.

Fall Leaves
Mowing over leaves to mulch them back into your lawn is a great option for reducing waste. Mulching not only returns vital nutrients to the soil, but experts say that it can help your grass grow even better the following year!
Never blow leaves into the street! If you see Street Sweeping signs posted on your street, please make sure to move your vehicle so any leaves that fell naturally on the street can be properly cleaned.
Leaf Drop-Off Sites
The Metro Public Works free leaf drop-off sites will be open Tuesday-Saturdays, November 7 through December 9. Drop-off will not be available on November 23 and 24 in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday. Only leaves will be accepted. Leaves can be loose, in paper/compostable bags, or reusable containers. Containers used to bring leaves to the drop-off sites must be taken back by residents.
