# Major Richmond Road development returns to Planning Commission agenda **Published:** 2026-09-10T17:30:00.000Z **Source:** [LFUCG Meeting Agendas](https://lfucg.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=4&clip_id=6881) **AI-generated:** yes (claude-haiku-4-5-20251001) **Canonical:** https://feeds.lexingtonky.news/article/major-richmond-road-development-returns-to-planning-commission-agenda LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Urban County Planning Commission is scheduled to reconsider a major residential development and several other projects at its [subdivision hearing on September 10](https://lfucg.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=4&clip_id=6881), marking the next step for a proposal that has already been postponed once this year. [The White Farm development](https://lfucg.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=4&clip_id=6881) at 3515 Richmond Road would bring [594 residential units—480 multifamily apartments and 114 townhomes—to a 30-acre property in Council District 7](https://lexingtonky.news/2026/08/13/planning-commission-set-to-consider-594-unit-white-farm-development-two-keys/). The project is being developed by Hillpointe, a Florida-based real estate firm. The Subdivision Committee has recommended approval subject to multiple conditions, but staff identified 15 requirements not yet met, including clarifications on lighting, bicycle parking distribution, and easement depictions on the site plan. The development also requires a waiver to utilize a private pump station rather than a public one. The commission must decide whether to grant that waiver, along with evaluating the 15 unmet requirements before the project can move forward. Among the outstanding issues are plans for dumpster enclosure specifications, walkway and driveway dimensions, and clarifications about public versus private rights-of-way on the property. The planning hearing will also address two waiver requests unrelated to White Farm. [Griffin Gate Center requests a waiver for open space standards](https://lfucg.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=4&clip_id=6881) for a property at 1920, 1950, and 1960 Newtown Pike and 1475 Coleman Court. A second waiver request from [South Farm Marketplace](https://lfucg.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=4&clip_id=6881) seeks a similar open space standards waiver for property at 4051 Nicholasville Road. Staff will report on both waivers at the meeting. The hearing also includes a third waiver request from the Bryant Property at 1800 Bryant Road, which seeks relief from substantial completion standards. The meeting will begin at 1:30 p.m. ET (12:30 p.m. CT) in the Council Chambers at the Urban County Government Building, 200 East Main Street. ## Sources - [LFUCG Meeting Agendas](https://lfucg.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=4&clip_id=6881) - [The Lexington Times article on White Farm development details](https://lexingtonky.news/2026/08/13/planning-commission-set-to-consider-594-unit-white-farm-development-two-keys/) --- This article was generated by AI (claude-haiku-4-5-20251001) based on source material from LFUCG Meeting Agendas, enriched with 2 web searches.
