 In conjunction with the ongoing Land Development Code (LDC) Reform process, the Office of Planning was tasked by Metro Council to study the existing development patterns in Louisville Metro and identify areas where new housing opportunities can be unlocked.
Working with the planning and urban design firm Opticos Design, the Office of Planning has developed the Housing & Mixed Use Development Study. The study analyzed existing conditions like land use, zoning, lot sizes, and infrastructure to identify areas that can support more housing, shown on the Analysis Map. After the Analysis Map was presented for public review in February 2024, the planning team worked to refine the map and develop a series of implementation strategies to help realize the identified potential for new housing. Drafts of the final materials for the study are now available for review and comment on the Office of Planning website, including a Story Map, the Analysis Map, and the draft Implementation Strategies Report.
The Office of Planning intends to adopt the Housing & Mixed Use Development Study and the Analysis Map as an amendment to Plan 2040, the comprehensive plan, after integrating public comment and feedback on the draft materials. The comment period will be open until at least November 1, 2024, with the option to extend if necessary.
You can access all of the Housing & Mixed Use Development Study draft materials, including the comment form, on the Office of Planning website: https://louisvilleky.gov/government/office-planning/housing-mixed-use-development-study.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) will hold a public meeting on Thursday, Oct. 24, at the South Central Regional Library (7300 Jefferson Blvd, Louisville, KY 40219) to update citizens on the next phase of the Preston Transportation Plan, which identifies short-term and long-term improvements for the roughly seven-mile corridor on Preston Highway between I-264 (Watterson Expressway) and I-265 (Gene Snyder Freeway).
The Oct. 24 meeting will be held from 5-7 p.m. and will be conducted in an open-house format, allowing attendees to view various exhibits, talk to KYTC representatives and ask questions about the study.
Written surveys will be available at the meeting to make it easier for the public to provide feedback directly to the project team. Surveys can be submitted by mail before Thursday, November 14, 2024, to the KYTC District 5 Office, 8310 Westport Road, Louisville, KY 40242. An online survey will be available following the public meeting.
Displays and materials will be available for review at the KYTC District 5 Office in Louisville beginning Friday, Oct. 25. Office hours are Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
