This project concerns a revised detailed district development plan (Case No. 24DDP0079) for properties located at 5024, 5026 South Third Street, and 307 West Kingston Avenue in Louisville, KY, encompassing approximately 0.42 acres. The primary amendment to the previously approved plan (23-ZONE-0065) relates to an increase in residential density at 5024 South Third Street. Initially, two of the four existing first-floor dwelling units at this address were proposed for removal to accommodate an expanded bakery. However, the applicant has now revised the plan to retain all four existing dwelling units and reduce the bakery's footprint. This decision results in the retention of two dwelling units that were previously slated for demolition, contributing to the overall residential capacity of the site, which maintains 12 dwelling units across the three parcels. The Planning Commission recommended approval of this revised plan to the Louisville Metro Council, which subsequently concurred with and adopted the findings.
