LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Urban County Planning Commission is set to consider several subdivision and development plans during a public hearing scheduled for Thursday, June 11, at 1:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at the Urban County Government Building, 200 East Main Street.

Among the items on the agenda is a proposed 288-unit multifamily residential development at 1811 Winchester Road near Frederick Douglass High School. The Patchen Wilkes Unit 2 development would feature eight multifamily buildings and is located off Winchester Road in Council District 6. The Subdivision Committee has recommended approval of the plan, subject to multiple conditions including acceptance of drainage and sewer systems by the Urban County Engineer, approval of street access by the traffic engineer, and compliance with environmental quality standards.

The development plan must address several requirements before final approval, including uploading an open space exhibit and depicting bicycle parking in compliance with zoning ordinances. The commission must either approve or disapprove the request by Aug. 2 unless applicants agree to extend that deadline.

Another item on the agenda is a proposed amendment to the Greendale Hills Unit 3 development at 2425 Mulundy Way. The amendment would depict commercial buildings and associated parking on the site. Originally approved by the commission in June 2024, the applicant requested a one-year extension in May. The Subdivision Committee has recommended postponement of the item.

A third development proposal involves WML Properties, LLC, at 503 S. Upper Street in Council District 3. The plan would add a patio and change circulation for the parking lot. The applicant is seeking a waiver to reduce the required amount of vegetated open space. The Subdivision Committee has recommended postponement due to concerns about dumpster access and on-site open space provisions.

The meeting will follow a structured format with staff reports, petitioner presentations, and public comment periods. The Planning Commission reviews and adopts the community's comprehensive plan, approves subdivision plats and development plans, and makes recommendations to the council for zone change requests. Members of the public are invited to attend and provide comment during designated periods.
