LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Planning Commission Subdivision (Sub) Committee is scheduled to meet on October 1 to review several development proposals, including a final subdivision plan that would create nearly 30 residential units on a Tates Creek Road property that straddles the Jessamine-Fayette county line.

According to the [meeting agenda](https://lfucg.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=4&event_id=4959), the committee will consider the GDK Farm LLC project at 5447 Tates Creek Road, which would subdivide approximately 14 acres into nine single-family residential lots and 20 townhome units. The proposal also includes two open space lots.

The project [previously received approval from the Planning Commission in May 2025](https://lexingtonky.news/2026/08/27/lexington-sign-permits-sales-august-2026/), and the final record plat represents the last step before individual lots can be offered for sale. However, the technical review committee that met September 23 recommended postponement, citing concerns about tree protection and maintenance details.

Committee members raised questions about the removal of trees along Sanctuary Lane and requested that the applicant prepare a revised tree protection plan and mitigation proposal. Additional clarifications are needed regarding sanitary sewer connections, visitor parking for the townhome units, and maintenance responsibilities for stormwater management areas. Coordination with Jessamine County regarding stormwater management that crosses county lines was also flagged as a potential requirement.

Should the committee move forward with approval, several city departments would need to sign off on the plan, including the Urban County Engineer, Traffic Engineer, Landscape Examiner, and Division of Water Quality. The committee is tentatively scheduling the final subdivision plan review for the Planning Commission's October 8 meeting.

The meeting begins at 8:30 a.m. ET (7:30 a.m. CT) in the third-floor conference room of the Phoenix Building at 101 E. Vine St.
