City Council Meeting July 13, 2026
Published: Jul 13, 2026
City Council approves June meeting minutes and second reading of stormwater ordinance
The council approved the minutes from the regular city council meeting on June 8th, 2026, and the special call city council meeting on June 15th, 2026. Additionally, Ordinance 5-26, concerning the repeal and replacement of Chapter 13.5 of the city code, passed its second reading unanimously after a roll call vote. [cite: 58-59, 70-83, 376]
Proposal for neighborhood worm farm and composting facility presented
Julian Rupp, representing Plenty LLC, presented an idea for developing an unbuildable lot owned by the Hope Initiative into a worm farm and composting facility for the neighborhood. This initiative aims to provide a foundation for community gardening and manage food scraps. The project would involve creating a gravel road with rows for worm farming and composting, situated away from residences. Mr. Rupp also mentioned his broader experience with community-driven projects across the country and his formation of an LLC. [cite: 22-36, 38-44, 46-55, 57]
West Broadway Property Rezoning from Professional to Residential under consideration
The council reviewed the first reading of Ordinance 6-26, a request to rezone the property at 1204 West Broadway from P1 (Professional) to R2 (Residential). This change is intended to address 'spot zoning' and align the property's zoning with the surrounding residential neighborhood. The Planning Commission approved the rezoning with the stipulation that it be contingent on the buyer proceeding with the purchase. Council members Ms. Carr and Ms. Adams indicated they would abstain from voting due to potential optics, despite having no direct financial stake. [cite: 340-341, 345-347, 351, 353-355, 357, 359-360, 363-366, 368-371, 376-381, 385-389]
Public Works addresses storm cleanup, park improvements, and infrastructure maintenance
Public Works Superintendent Aaron Blunt reported on storm cleanup efforts following significant storms on June 8th and subsequent periods. Efforts included clearing fallen trees and debris for the 4th of July celebration. Other public works activities included street and sidewalk repair, drainage issue resolution, installation of cornhole boards at Dunbar Park, repairs to backhoes, and maintenance of the splash park system, which requires an upgrade to a hardwired system due to the current wireless system's lack of support after this year. Catch basins on Macedonia Street were repaired, and cemetery grounds were maintained. The department is also involved in mapping storm sewers for the MS4 program. [cite: 612-649]
City Council briefed on mandatory MS4 Stormwater Program requirements and potential costs
The City Council was presented with an overview of the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) program requirements mandated by the Kentucky Division of Water under the Clean Water Act. Alex Reed of Reed Environmental Consulting explained the city's obligations, including managing stormwater runoff, preventing pollution, and complying with permit conditions. The presentation highlighted the financial implications and the need for the city to adopt ordinances, develop management plans, and potentially hire staff or contract services to ensure compliance and avoid significant daily fines. The council was advised on the next steps, which include adopting ordinances, supporting the program through funding and staffing, and staying informed about the annual reports.
