The Lexington City Council voted 13 to 2 Thursday night to approve a comprehensive plan allowing for a 27 hundred to 5000 acre urban service expansion. It’s been a hotly debated item for years and has intensified in recent weeks. First District Council Member Tayna Fogle said some residents in her downtown district are worried that without expansion, infill development might push homeowners out.
“How do we know if we start working on the infill and start building infill that we won’t be more gentrified than we are now,” said Fogle.
