The Lexington City Council is expected to take a final vote this Thursday on the expansion of the urban service area. How and when the additional acreage will be developed remains a question.
The 15-member Urban County Council is set to take action on the updated comprehensive plan. It includes the provision to expand between 27 hundred to 5000 acres. Council action on June first charged the Planning Division with looking at the pace of development. Council Member Jennifer Reynolds said a timeline can’t be established yet.
