A letter from Lexington Mayor Linda Gorton to the committee advising the Planning Commission on expanding the city’s urban service boundary has raised the eyebrows of at least one city council member. 7th District Councilmember Preston Worley is a leading advocate of the push to expand the USB by up to 5-thousand acres.
“It's pretty easy to interpret that the mayor's letter is attempting to direct the advisory committee or influence the advisory committee to choose the least amount of acreage.”
