We are seeing an increase in car thefts, specifically Kias and Hyundai's.

What we're seeing is juveniles are catching on to these social media videos and acting on that.

And again, we're seeing this in Jefferson County, but we're also seeing the trend across the country.

We're being alerted by other police departments as well that they're seeing this problem.

We ask that you do a few simple things.

So the first one sounds silly, but lock your car.

Also, if you can attempt to park in a well lit or secured area.

Please don't hesitate to call us if you see something suspicious.

Um our non-emergency number is five seven four LMPD, and you can always report things anonymously.

While you are still here to make sure you have your flowers.

I can I can do that way you can just uh TV will begin in approximately forty-five seconds.

Good afternoon, and welcome to Planning and Zoning Committee.

I'm Councilwoman Madonna Flood, the chair of the committee.

I'm joined today by my vice chair, Councilman Scott Reed, by committee members, Councilwoman Cassie Chambers Armstrong, Councilwoman Betsy Ruey, Councilman Khalil Batsone.

We are also joined by Councilman Philip Baker and uh momentarily we'll be joined by Jennifer Chapel.

Also, Robin Ingle has an excused absence.

And virtually we have Councilman Jeff Hudson on the screen.

Um just to uh do a little bit of housekeeping.

We will not be we will not be calling items one, three, four, five, and six.

That leaves us item number two, item number seven and eight that we will hear today.

Um I will leave the room because um one of the titles says that is uh part of the properties owned by uh the Roman Catholic Bishop of Louisville, and I in full disclosure, I'm on the board of Catholic charities.

Uh so I will be leaving the room.

Uh and Scott Reed will share those two items.

And then we will go into discussion with uh Emily Lou, uh, Julia Williams, Joe Haberman, and probably Brian Davis will still have to be here to help us through some uh we'll get some updates from uh planning and design and then um maybe go over what we're going to do in the next two or three weeks in the committee.

So our first item on the agenda is going to be an ordinance relating to the closure of the unnamed alleys adjacent to seven hundred and thirty-nine seven hundred and forty-one seven hundred and forty-three, seven hundred and forty-five, seven hundred and forty-seven, seven hundred and forty-nine second south twenty-third street, and two thousand seventeen, two thousand nineteen, two thousand twenty-one, two thousand twenty-three.

Oh, excuse me, twenty-two seventeen, twenty-two, nineteen, two, twenty-two, twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, and twenty-two twenty-five.

Maple Street containing approximately zero point six eight acres and being in Louisville Metro.

Case number twenty-two, street closure zero zero two six.

Motion to approve.

Second.

We are ready for discussion.

All right, good afternoon, Brian Davis, Little Metro Planning and Design.

This is Planning Commission Docket number 22, street closure 26.

This is an unnamed alley, a lot of budding addresses as you just read.

So you have Maple Street here to the south, and then you can see that the alley comes off of Anderson and then tees over to and I can't remember the number, and of course it doesn't show up on the map.

But uh the the only this portion right here is the one that's being proposed uh to be closed right now.

Um so the request is a closure of the public right of way for the unnamed unimproved alley.

Um this uh um closure uh is associated with the local MSD uh property acquisitions that are related to local stormwater flooding.

Uh so they have acquired a number of properties, uh and so all of the properties that abut this portion of the of the Alawa Alleyway uh have been uh purchased and are owned by Louisville MSD.

That's part of the reason why some of the other alley area that you saw hasn't been or are not being proposed to be closed this time because they have not acquired all those properties.

Um this right-of-way property, in addition to the ones that MSD owns, uh, they will be all be used for the development of the Maple Street Park Project, uh which you may have heard about.

Uh this is the street closure plan that was provided by uh MSD uh and public works as part of the application.

Uh so again you can see the area in red is uh is uh the area in which they're proposing to close at this time.

Uh the land development transportation committee had their meeting on January 12, 2023.

Uh and then the planning commission's public hearing on this item was on January 19, 2023.

No one spoke in opposition.

Uh and then the uh planning commission's motion was to recommend approval of the alley closure, and that passed by a vote of seven uh to zero with one abstention.

That's all that I have unless you have any questions for me.

I was in contact with Councilman Arthur yesterday, and he is fully supportive of this road closure and gave him an opportunity if he had any questions or comments, but he just said that he would uh appreciate our um going forward in approval of this closure.

Does anyone else have any questions or comments?

Seeing none and no one in the queue.
