For almost a half-century someone with the last name of Blevins has served in Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government. That changes Wednesday when Susan Lamb becomes the Fayette County Clerk. Don Blevins announced his retirement in December, less than a month after winning a fourth term. Blevins said his decision came following a confluence of a number of factors including some changes in his personal life last year.
“That happened after the filing deadline for the record that were actually a positive in my life, but it’s changed some of my life’s decisions. Forced me to take a look at my life’s decisions. I was planning on maybe retiring at the end of 2023 anyway. So a lot of things came together all at once and directed that January would be the right time to do it.”
