This ordinance amends Chapter 162 of the Louisville Metro Code of Ordinances, specifically the guidelines for the NuLu Review Overlay District. The NuLu Overlay District, established in 2015, aims to enhance the appearance, sustainability, and economic vitality of the mixed-use NuLu area. The proposed amendments, recommended by the NuLu Review Overlay District Committee on December 4, 2024, seek to reorganize and clarify the existing design guidelines. The changes cover various aspects including signage regulations (e.g., prohibition of freestanding pole signs, guidelines for projecting signs), building aesthetics (e.g., emphasis on high-quality, durable materials, compatibility with historic structures), public art integration, site planning, and parking (e.g., discouraging new surface parking lots without a principal structure, promoting shared parking). Additionally, the ordinance updates historic preservation guidelines to ensure new development maintains the district's historic character while encouraging sustainable building practices, such as pursuing LEED certification for new commercial, industrial, and residential buildings. The overall goal is to provide clearer standards for future development and alterations within the district.
