The next event will be held on July 24, featuring a soccer clinic and workout classes.

District 10 Spotlight - Germantown Baseball! 

Today the spotlight is on Germantown Baseball! Organized in 1953 as Little League expanded, teams played at St. Michael Field until 1971. At that time, Germantown Baseball moved to the current location at 1537 Poplar Level Road.

Today, the park features five baseball/softball diamonds, four outdoor double batting cages, concession stand, playground, covered pavilion area, two restroom locations, picnic tables, all in the most shaded privately owned ball park in Louisville. It is a great place to enjoy baseball, softball, and t-ball! We send a special thank you to the Sherwin-Williams team who volunteered time, paint, and materials to give the park a glow up earlier this week!

Locate legal Short Term Rentals with Metro's interactive map

Short term rental enforcement continues in large part to be complaint-driven, based on public reporting of alleged violations to administrators. An interactive map tool contains all of the registered short term rentals in Louisville having an active permit to rent their property out to paying customers on STR websites like Airbnb.

If you believe someone is using a property as a short term rental but it does not show up on this registry, or if the registry indicates a non-owner occupied property does not have a CUP, then please report the issue here (select “Zoning and Business Concerns,” “Zoning Concern,” “Short Term Rental,” complete the form and submit). Or contact our office.
