When the topic is when and where to grow around Lexington, it often results in significant public comment. Such was the case Tuesday night when the Urban Growth Management Advisory Committee took testimony about five areas under expansion consideration. Parkers Mill Road Resident Steven Webb said his family developed farmland commercially, but he’s worried about how Lexington grows.
“Everyone wants to do the math on the urban sprawl, I’ve got this many acres I can build this many lots. This is the math. This is how much I’m gonna make. But, I think we need to build up and not out,” said Webb.
