LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government’s Planning Commission Zoning Committee is scheduled to reconsider five zoning map amendment petitions Wednesday that have been postponed from previous meetings, according to the committee’s agenda for June 4. The petitions involve proposed rezoning of properties across the city for commercial, residential and warehouse development. Three of the applications were previously postponed in May, including a request by Mount Laurel Lands Company to convert 1.12 acres on Old Paris Road from single-family residential to wholesale and warehouse business use. The committee will also consider Edward McGhee’s proposal to rezone nearly 9.4 acres on Tates Creek Road and Saron Drive from single-family residential to medium-density residential. A related development plan for the Tom Collins Farm property also appears on the agenda. If approved, the rezoning would allow residential development in an area known for its established neighborhoods and proximity to schools. A second residential development proposal on Sir Barton Way seeks to rezone 3.94 acres from professional office to medium-density residential. RAK Properties Lexington, LLC also is requesting a waiver to allow use of an existing access easement for the Sir Barton Way apartments project. South Broadway Project Owner, LLC is seeking approval to convert 5.089 acres on South Broadway from wholesale and warehouse business to neighborhood business zoning. The property includes the former Dean Lexington tobacco company site. The Fox South property petition on Southland Drive requests rezoning from professional office to neighborhood business, along with multiple variances to reduce landscaping and tree canopy requirements. The applicant seeks to increase the maximum front yard setback and eliminate buffer requirements for the vehicular use area. The zoning committee meets at 1:30 p.m. ET in the Phoenix Building’s third-floor conference room, 101 E. Vine Street. The public can view more information about current zoning applications through the LFUCG’s development and zoning portal. The next regularly scheduled zoning committee meeting is July 2.
