LEXINGTON, Ky. — The General Government & Planning Committee is scheduled to consider updates on several key initiatives during its meeting on Wednesday, July 1, according to the published agenda. The committee will convene at 1 p.m. in the Council Chamber at 200 E. Main St.
Among the items on the agenda is an update on short-term rental regulations, which have been a focus of ongoing review since they took effect in January 2024. The city has been soliciting feedback from STR operators and community members about how the rules are working on the ground. In November 2024, the Planning Commission considered modifications to the regulations, including reducing the threshold for unhosted STR unit density in neighborhoods from 3% to 2% of housing units within any 1,000-foot area and increasing the required distance between unhosted units from 500 feet to 600 feet.
The committee will also receive an update on the Blue Sky Small Area Plan, which aims to chart a long-term development strategy for the industrial area near the intersection of Interstate 75 and Athens-Boonesboro Road. The Blue Sky Activity Center, which was incorporated into the Urban Service Area in 2023, is home to approximately 150 businesses supporting over 1,000 jobs, with more than 60% of positions paying at least $20 per hour in industries like manufacturing, construction, and warehousing. The plan will evaluate infrastructure needs, economic development opportunities, and zoning updates tailored to support industrial uses in the decades-old industrial park.
Another agenda item addresses “A Sense of Place,” an initiative aimed at preserving and celebrating the history of more than 20 historic Black hamlets in Fayette County. The campaign has been raising funds to complete restoration of the historic Cadentown Rosenwald School and cemetery, which would serve as a history center for artifacts and family stories of rural Fayette County communities created by free African Americans after the Civil War.
The committee will also consider items referred to the committee and approve minutes from its June 2 meeting. No votes are expected to be taken at this stage, as the committee typically discusses and deliberates items before forwarding them to the full Urban County Council.
