On June 20, 2013 the Metro Council unanimously passed a budget for Fiscal Year 2013-2014. The final version of the budget projects growth in revenues due to an improving local economic outlook and includes no increases to taxes or fees. The amount received through Withholding Taxes is expected to be 3% higher, Net Profits at 6.1%, Insurance 2.5% and Property Taxes are expected to grow by 1.25%.
Prior to voting on the FY14 Budget, more than forty hours of Budget Committee Hearings were held. Members of the Metro Council had the opportunity to question the administration and its department directors about priorities such as road maintenance, economic development, planned infrastructure improvements and park master plans – to name just to name a few of the topics covered. While much of the Mayor’s budget remained unchanged, the Metro Council did make a number of important changes to better reflect the priorities of this community.
Additional Federal Dollars
During the budget process Louisville Metro received confirmation of an additional $1,191,400 of federal funds. The Council was able to allocate those additional funds to economic development projects and affordable housing projects.
Addressing Public Right of Ways and Maintenance:
- Appropriated $100,000 for additional mowing of medians through Metro Public Works, Inspections and Permits and through Metro Corrections program.
- Appropriated $100,000 for additional demolition of properties that have been declared abandoned.
- Added more than $1 million in Capital Infrastructure Funds and other council designated funds to pave our roads that are in most need of repair.
Funding Priorities Added to the Budget:
- Community Ministries received a 20.7% increase in funding, and $154,100 was added to help fund the important mission of the various community ministries around the Metro.
- External Agencies received an additional $390,000 in general funds to address critical needs. Groups receiving additional funds included: the Healing Place, Home of the Innocents, Volunteers of America’s Family Emergency Shelter, Project Warm, FEAT of Louisville, GuardianCare, and various Adult/Senior Day Care centers. Approximately $200,000 of the additional federal dollars were allocated to the Center for Women and Families, coalition for the Homeless, Jefferson Street Baptist community at Liberty and Father Maloney’s Boys and Girls Haven.
Paving Roads and Building Sidewalks
Each year members of the Metro Council receive $100,000 in the district’s Capital Infrastructure (CIF) Account. In an effort to maximize transparency and ensure the best use of these funds, Members of the Republican Caucus have again decided to pool our funds and use them on projects outlined in the budget. Last year, members of the Caucus focused CIF funds on paving those streets rated lowest by Public Works within their districts. This year, we have dedicated more than 93% of our pooled funds toward paving and sidewalk improvements (the other 7% went toward Park Improvements). As a result, approximately $2 million in funding will go for the following paving and sidewalk projects this fiscal year:
Paving is planned for portions of the following Streets: Old Lagrange Road, McMahan Blvd, Rock Bay Drive, Wolfspring Drive and Court, Deer Meadow Drive and Court, Pamela Way, Big Bend Drive, Limewood Circle, Saratoga Hill Road, Harrodwood Court, Mill Brook Road. Taxwell Drive, Lincoln Way, Smyrna Road, Williams Road, Adams Run Road, Springwood Lane, Pope Dale Road, Gilliland Road, Springwater Court, Woodstream Place, River Road, Briscoe Lane, Old Clark Station Road and the Meadows of Polo Fields.
Sidewalk projects that are included within this year’s budget are: Fern Creek Road (Anderson Park Patio Homes to Ferndale Road), Arbor Wood Subdivision from Billtown Road to Schafler, a sidewalk at the railroad crossing near Hubbards Lane, Watterson Trail from Nashand Lane to Hendrick, continuation of the MET Trail along Shelbyville Road in Middletown and Highview Park Walking Path.
We recognize millions more are needed for paving and sidewalk projects, so members of the Metro Council made certain that both the Mayor and Director of Public Works understand the need for even greater investment in roads in the coming years. We are also proud to say that each road selected for paving was chosen by the independent ratings of professionals with the Public Works Department based solely on need.
Economic Development
Urton Lane Corridor: One of the top priorities for members of the Republican Caucus was to secure funding for the Urton Lane Extension. This approximately $1.2 million project provides a new arterial road linking numerous local roads and arterials. The Urton Lane Extension will provide access to more than 400 acres, allowing up to 10,000 manufacturing and technical jobs to be created at nearby Bluegrass Commerce Park.
Quiet Zone Planned for Old Harrods Creek Drive and UPS Drive
In response to continued constituent requests for quiet zones, we were able to secure $258,000 for eligible quiet zones at Old Harrods Creek Drive and UPS Drive in Lyndon. While we would like to implement quiet zones at additional crossings, many fail to meet federal requirements. The anticipated timeline for the quiet zone implementation at Old Harrods Creek Drive and UPS Drive is 1 ½ to 2 years. The project includes - developing plans which must be approved by CSX Railroad, biding and awarding the project, and construction which can include curbing, paving, right-of-way acquisition, and equipment installation at the designated sites.
Conclusion
While there are always details in the budget that I would like to see changed, this budget has more taxpayer protections and oversight than any that I have dealt with in the past. Members from both parties came together to unanimously pass both the Capital and Operating Budgets for FY14. This unanimous vote came as the result of council members agreeing to focus on paving streets, investing in infrastructure and addressing blighted properties.
A copy of the final budget will be available online at www.louisvilleky.gov. To view any of the many hours of public hearings tune into Metro TV (TWC Channel 25) or visit http://www.louisvilleky.gov/MetroCouncil/granicus-ifame.htm.

Every eight minutes, an underground utility line is damaged because someone decided to dig without first calling 811 or having their underground lines marked in another way.
Each digging project requires a call to 811 to prevent damage to underground lines, injuries and disruption of service.
Residents should have their lines marked by calling 811 at least two business days before performing any excavation work, including the following.
-
Installing a mailbox
-
Installing a fence
-
Planting trees or shrubbery
-
Building a patio or deck
-
Excavating a garden
-
Installing a pool
-
Any other work that requires digging
After calling 811, members from all affected utility companies in the area — including LG&E — will mark the location of the lines.
811 is the national number designated by the Federal Communications Commission to help protect homeowners and professional excavators from unintentionally hitting underground utility lines while working on digging projects — large and small.
Use Your Senses
Our underground pipelines are the safest, most-efficient way to deliver natural gas to your home. Our lines are constantly monitored and inspected so we can locate and fix potential problems before they occur. Yet residents should use their senses to keep an eye out for potential gas leaks as well.
If you:
Smell a distinct odor;
Hear a hissing, whistling or blowing sound; or
See blowing dust, discolored vegetation or bubbling in water…
Immediately leave the area and call LG&E at 502-589-1444. Warn others to stay away.
Indoors
Natural gas in its pure form is colorless and odorless. A chemical, called mercaptan, is added to give natural gas a distinctive odor — similar to that of rotten eggs — so you can smell a leak immediately and take action. A strong odor means you should leave your home at once and take the following steps:
DO NOT use a telephone.
DO NOT switch a light on or off.
DO NOT light a match or use a flashlight.
If you or someone in the building experiences dizziness, headache, nausea, fatigue or flu-like symptoms, this could be a sign that a natural gas leak or release of carbon monoxide has occurred.
If you suspect a gas leak, immediately leave the area and call LG&E at 502-589-1444. Warn others to stay away.
Outdoors
If you suspect a gas leak outdoors:
Shut down and abandon any equipment being used in or near the area.
Avoid open flame or other sources of ignition. Do not start any motor vehicles or electrical equipment.
Evacuate the area and prevent unsuspecting people from entering.
Notify us at 502-589-1444 immediately so the leak can be verified and necessary corrective action can take place.
Get help from local law enforcement officials to isolate the area.
Do not attempt to extinguish a natural gas fire. Request the local fire department to protect adjacent property.
Do not attempt to operate any pipeline valves.
If you suspect a gas leak, immediately leave the area and call.
In December of 2012, Lifestyle Communities obtained approval of a conditional use permit for a private proprietary club to operate a restaurant and bar in the clubhouse at LC – Idlewild apartment community, which is now under construction at English Station Way and Landis Ridge Drive. Since that time, changes in state law and local procedures related to ABC licensing of private clubs have been enacted which have created a conflict with local zoning regulations governing private clubs. In order to resolve this conflict, Lifestyle Communities plans to file an application for a change in zoning to C-1 Commercial and conditional use permit on the portion of the property where the clubhouse is located so that it may operate the restaurant and bar in the clubhouse as previously planned. We are inviting adjoining property owners and neighborhood group representatives to a meeting discuss this proposal before filing our application. This will be an informal meeting to give you the opportunity to review the proposal and provide your comments to us. This meeting will be held in addition to the established procedures of the Louisville Metro Planning Commission, including a full public hearing.
The meeting to discuss this development proposal will be held on Tuesday, June 25, 2013 at 6:00 p.m. at Summit Academy, 11508 Main Street, Louisville, Kentucky.
At this meeting, Lifestyle Communities and its representatives will explain the proposal and address any questions you may have. The purpose of this meeting is to increase your understanding of this case early in the process. We encourage you to attend this meeting and to share your comments on this proposal.
