Louisville Metro Council approved the rezoning of 8915 Old Bardstown Road from residential to commercial zoning. The change will allow for the development of retail or service-oriented businesses, enhancing commercial opportunities in the area. The site, covering approximately 2.2 acres, will now be able to accommodate businesses that align with Louisville Metro’s land use and economic development goals. The rezoning aligns with the city's Plan 2040, which encourages mixed-use and commercial development in key corridors.
This rezoning supports economic growth and commercial development in the area, attracting businesses that provide essential services to local residents. It also promotes efficient land use by transitioning underutilized residential land into a vibrant commercial space.
