The advisory panel examining where urban service expansion should occur in Lexington has finalized its map recommendation. The action Tuesday suggests growth totaling about 3000 acres with much of it located near the Winchester-Royster road corridor and Richmond Road-Athens areas. Planning and Preservation Commissioner Keith Horn said the final report now goes to the Planning Commission.
“And I would anticipate in October, as I said they’ll do their tentative approval of a growth area so that the master plan can be completed over the next year, but the final decision…the final final decision won’t be until the end of next year,” said Horn.
