Planning and Design Services Holds Sustainable Communities Workshop

Louisville Metro Planning and Design Services is holding a Sustainable Communities Design Workshop October 19-21 at the Fern Creek Fire Station #2,9409 Bardstown Road.

The three-day interactive community workshop will explore the idea of sustainable communities and mixed use “centers.” The workshop provides an ideal setting to explore how the “centers” idea can work for Fern Creek, and in turn, how this area can serve as a model for other parts of Louisville and the region.

Activities for the workshop include formal presentations; group discussions (focusing on design, transportation, housing, neighborhoods, environment, open space, economic development, and land use); and open design studios.

The workshop is free and all sessions are open to the public.
