The deputy director of water quality in Lexington says the city is in a ‘good place’ as it relates to stormwater control. Greg Lubeck updated a Lexington City Council committee last week. Lubeck said the city met federal consent decree requirements in 2021. He said now the focus is on a variety of locally requested projects. Lubeck noted timelines can be challenging.
“Easements are where we always get hung up. It could take six months to a year to get all the easements we need for a project. So, trying to say I’m going to do three projects next year. I can’t really make that promise. It’s keeping things moving,” said Lubeck.
