 My next 'Coffee With Your Councilman' will be Wednesday, May 14 at 9 a.m. at MozzaPi, 12102 La Grange Road. I'll share the latest news from City Hall and address any questions attendees have. We'll be joined that day by Louisville Free Public Library (LFPL) Director Lee Burchfield. If you have any thoughts or concerns regarding our library system, this would be a great meeting to attend. Hope to see you then!

The Louisville Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD) is conducting a survey to gather feedback on its current communications processes. Your input would be helpful in improving how they communicate with residents, ensuring you receive the information you need when you need it. The survey takes just a few minutes to complete and will be available until May 30. Thank you for your participation!
 I wanted to send another reminder about Macbeth coming to Hounz Lane Park on Sunday, May 4. We had an unbelievable turnout last year for a performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream and hope to see a similar crowd this year. Feel free to bring chairs or blankets, some food, and even your pet if you like. Hounz Lane Park is a beautiful venue for something like this, and I think you'll have an enjoyable time watching this talented cast. Hope to see you on the 4th!
Louisville Metro residents may now fill out an online form to request curbside pickup following recent severe weather events. This service is provided for residential debris only. Household hazardous waste will not be accepted. If you're interested, click here for the required self-reporting form and answers to some frequently asked questions about this opportunity. If you need additional assistance, please call Public Works at 574-3572.
 Some of you may recall seeing a survey around this time last year asking for your opinions on such things as the prevalence of litter and the city's abatement efforts. That baseline survey received more than 1,000 responses. The Waste Management District is asking for your help again this year to track potential changes in perceptions about litter in Louisville. The survey takes only a few minutes to complete, so I hope you'll be able to help.
Yesterday afternoon, the mayor shared his recommended FY26 budget with the Metro Council.

Incidents of vehicle thefts and thefts from vehicles have picked up recently in the 8th Division. These crimes are primarily happening in the early morning hours and mostly involve unlocked vehicles. Unfortunately, several firearms have been taken from some of these vehicles. Please remember to lock your doors and remove guns, valuables, etc. from your vehicle when you're not in it.
