Louisville Metro Government operates on an annual budget that unlike the Federal Government, must be balanced and must be passed prior to the start of the new Fiscal Year on the first day of July. Mayor Greenberg delivered his third budget proposal to the members of the Louisville Metro Council, outlining approximately $1.2 billion in spending ($960 million for the Operating Budget and $240 million for the Capital budget). The mayor’s budget proposal begins working from as positive of a position as has occurred in many years. According to the Mayor’s Office, Louisville Metro is working from a position of strength and has a surplus of approximately $50 million. This funding will be used to increase our investment in infrastructure, technology for fighting crime, as well as finding ways to streamline permitting and application processes for persons looking to invest within our city. The mayor also used our positive position to propose levels of paving and other deferred maintenance that will help us continue to make significant improvements to our roads, sidewalks, as well as the general upkeep of our community assets.
Next Steps
We will now spend the next few weeks looking through the hundreds of pages of details in order to get a better grasp of what is being proposed. Starting Thursday, May 8th the Metro Council’s Budget Committee will begin the hearing process. Over the course of the next two months, we will have nearly 30 hours of budget hearings covering at least 20 departments and government agencies.
Many Good Things to Talk About
Mayor Greenberg seems to have listened and worked many of our ideas into his budget proposal. Fully funding road paving, the police headquarters construction and helping to complete funding for new libraries are a few examples of what can be liked about this proposal.
The willingness to invest not only in downtown but now in areas outside of the Watterson Expressway gives me hope we can begin to make real progress and improvements in all parts of our city. There is $122 million proposed to be managed by our Public Works and Assets Department for 41 projects including $30 million for paving throughout Metro, $2 million in sidewalk repair, $29 million to continue the Louisville Loop in over 10 areas of Metro, $18 million for the Cooper Chapel Road project and many new sidewalk and road projects.
$26.8 million is proposed to be spent for affordable housing projects, home repairs and homeless shelter projects.
The Mayor has included $33.3 million throughout Metro for grants or contracts to non-profit organizations to supplement the activities and objectives of Louisville Metro.
A few concerns heading into Budget Hearings:
Lack of Funding for a Police Training Facility: While the Mayor’s budget does adequately fund the continued work on a new police headquarters, it fails to support an equally needed new police training facility. This project has been needed for nearly a decade and was one of the top projects that I and members within the Metro Council listed in our meetings leading up to the Mayor’s speech. I will continue to pursue funding for this facility as it is needed to help us bring in more officers as well as improve training for police, fire and other safety officers working in our community.
Growth of Metro Personnel: There are 69 new positions as well as salary increases listed within the Mayor’s Proposal. Some of those proposals are needed to keep and retain needed positions such as engineers and project managers. Even though we are in good financial times, we want to be sure that we are still evaluating the usefulness of all persons so that our government is operating in the most efficient way possible. Understanding the hiring, growth and other factors within this budget will take some time, but that will be an aspect of this budget that I will be carefully reviewing.
Planning for the Future: Over the past decade the Metro Council has helped to fund more proactive approaches towards issues by increasing funding for preventative maintenance within our parks and public works departments. We need to make sure that this budget not only continues that work, but also creates proposals that will help to address traffic problems, improve safety and deliver services as they are needed instead of making promises and failing to deliver. As a member of the Metro Council, I will be looking to fund the work that will lead to upgrades in our District 16 parks, Thurman Hutchins, Cox, and Hays Kennedy, as well as historic site Locust Grove. By funding this type of project, we will have a game plan for bringing real improvements to our area.
Big Picture Highlights of the Budget Proposal:
- $30 million for paving/repairing streets. This marks the ninth year in which the Metro Council would meet or exceed our goals for addressing needed paving within the community.
- $1 million for additional cameras and license plate readers to continue our efforts to reduce crime.
- $9.2 million for continued work towards a new LMPD Headquarters
- $3 million for a new and innovative program established with the goal of bringing new businesses and restaurants to the South End.
- $3 million for addressing overdue infrastructure needs within the fastest growing areas of eastern Jefferson County
- Additional Funding for 24-hour shelter service to assist with our communities homeless population.
- Additional funding to offer medical assistance to homeless persons recently released from hospital treatment.
- $15 million in funding to support the Affordable Housing Trust Fund
- $2 million to support efforts to use Artificial Intelligence to reduce regulations, improve the permitting process and streamline the delivery of government services.

Last night the Metro Council received the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Budget proposal from Mayor Greenberg. This proposal was received during a speech given to the members of the Metro Council during our regularly scheduled meeting and signifies the start the nearly two month long budget review process that will conclude at our June 26, 2025 Metro Council meeting.
The Mayor’s budget proposal represents months of work leading up to the presentation by the Mayor and his appointees. Mayor Greenberg’s proposal lays out our community’s spending priorities.
Members of the Metro Council do not get advance copies of the hundreds of pages of proposals, so our ability to give in depth comments on the proposal is limited. Over the next two weeks members of the Metro Council will take time to read through the hundreds of pages of documentation and then we will begin dozens of hours of public hearings with each department.
After the conclusion of the mayor’s speech, we returned to our regular meeting schedule voting on previous meeting minutes, the Metro Council’s Consent items and voting on those items listed on old business for their final recommendation.
Items Voted on during our April 24th meeting included:
Greater Louisville Pride Foundation Funding (O-080-25): Metro Council members allocated neighborhood development funding to support the creation and installation of signage honoring My Morning Jackson at the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center.
Kenducky Derby Funding for Harbor House): The Metro Council unanimously supported an ordinance to support and assist with marketing and fundraising for Harbor House’s 2025 Kenducky Derby Event at Waterfront Park.
Zoning Cases: The Metro Council unanimously supported the approval of a zoning case on Thixton Lane after adding two binding elements to further clarify the maximum allowed number of units allowed to be constructed on the property.
Land Development Proposals: The sponsor for items O-086-25 and R-033-25 withdrew his sponsorship of a resolution requesting the planning staff review the definition of pool and game rooms as well as the moratorium on such developments within a specific PDD. Both items died for lack of a sponsor.
The Metro Council does not have meetings scheduled for next week. Our next regular committee week will be the week of May 5, 2025.
Louisville Metro residents may now fill out an online form to request curbside debris pick-up following recent severe weather events, including tornadoes and flooding.
“When storms hit, they don’t just impact physical structures, they can turn people’s lives upside-down. We’re happy to be able to offer some relief from what we know can feel like an overwhelming burden, cleaning up what is left behind from the storms and flooding,” Mayor Craig Greenberg said.
Curbside service is for residential storm and flood related debris only. Household hazardous waste will not be accepted at the curb.
Additionally, residents must fill out the Self-Reporting Form, then wait for further instructions on when to bring their debris to the curb.
Businesses should contact and go-through their insurance for assistance.
If you cannot access the Self-Reporting Form, or need additional assistance, please contact Public Works at 502-574-3572.
To find the Self-Reporting Form and review frequently asked questions visit the Storm and Flood Debris Cleanup webpage.

Contract crews to perform bridge repairs
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (April 24, 2025) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of lane and ramp closures on Interstate 64 and Interstate 265 (Gene Snyder Freeway) beginning Friday, April 25, in Jefferson County, as part of the I-Move Kentucky project. Details regarding planned traffic impacts are below.
From 8 p.m. Friday, April 25, to 6 a.m. Monday, April 28:
- I-265 South near mile marker 25 (at the bridge over I-64) will be reduced to one lane.
- I-64 West near mile point 19.4 (at the I-64/I-265 interchange) will be reduced to two lanes.
- The ramp from I-64 West to I-265 South will be closed.
- The ramp from I-265 South to I-64 East will be closed.
The weekend lane and ramp closures are necessary for contract crews to apply a latex overlay to the I-265 bridge over I-64. This treatment will extend the structure’s lifespan and improve roadway drivability.
Motorists should heed signage, use caution, and expect delays while traveling through the work zone.
The date and duration of this work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen delays occur.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (April 25, 2025) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of the upcoming closure of a section of KY 22 (Ballardsville Road) beginning Tuesday, April 29, in Oldham County.
KY 22 (Ballardsville Road) will be closed from mile point 11.5 (at the KY 22/KY 53 intersection) to mile point 0.35 (near Radcliff Road in Henry County) beginning Tuesday, April 29, at 9 a.m. This section of KY 22 (Ballardsville Road) is currently reduced to one lane, with traffic managed by a temporary signal, due to a roadway slide caused by recent heavy rainfall and flooding.
The full closure starting April 29 is necessary to allow KYTC crews to carry out slide repairs safely. A timeline for reopening is not currently available, as the full extent of the damage cannot be assessed until work begins. Updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
Motorists should expect to follow the signed detours along the route while work is underway. Drivers should continue on KY 22 (Ballardsville Road) to KY 53, then follow KY 322 (Lucas Road/McCoun Road) in Shelby and Henry Counties to reconnect with KY 22 beyond the closure. Motorists traveling from Henry County to La Grange should take KY 1861 (Smithfield Road) to Radcliff Road, then continue on KY 712 (Jericho Road) to reach La Grange. Local traffic should navigate around the closure via Ballard Vista Drive on the west side of the work zone or Ballard Glenn Parkway on the east side.
