Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Jeffersontown public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Chenoweth Run Road annexation
The city is asking Metro to approve annexing two tracts, including about a half to three-quarters of a mile of Chenoweth Run Road near the amphitheater and Veterans Park. Once approved (or after 60 days), the land becomes part of Jeffersontown — which could mean city services and city taxes for that area.
Multifamily rezoning next to Jeffersontown High School
A revised development plan (residents linked it to the Bluebird site) is heading to the council, and residents were frustrated by earlier downtown proceedings. A special public hearing is set for July 22 at 5 p.m. at City Hall with time limits on speakers.
Tornado rebuilding fee waiver extension
A few property owners from the April 2025 tornado still haven't rebuilt — they're stuck waiting on engineers and insurance. The fee waiver extension gives them another year without paying demolition and building permit fees.
