Court adopts zoning change for a Steventon Lane parcel and approves engineering amendment for Forks of the Elkhorn wastewater project
Summary
The court approved a 2.94-acre rezoning from agricultural to rural residential and authorized an amended engineering services agreement for the Forks of the Elkhorn wastewater collection project tied to a $2.8 million grant and anticipated local contributions.
The Franklin County Fiscal Court approved a zoning map change on second reading and authorized an amendment to engineering services related to a wastewater collection project.
Autumn, planning staff, brought the second reading of an ordinance to rezone a 2.94-acre property at 2440 Steventon Lane (PVA map number 083000037.02) from agricultural (AG) to rural residential (RR); the court adopted the ordinance on the second reading without recorded public opposition during the meeting.
Separately, the court approved an amended scope and fee with HMB Professional Services for design and grant-related services for the Forks of the Elkhorn wastewater collection system. County and city staff said the project received approximately $2.8 million in grant funding from the Kentucky Infrastructure Authority, with additional city contributions and private-owner investments expected to cover remaining construction costs. HMB described the funding-administration portion of its amendment as grant compliance and reporting to ensure the county meets Kentucky Infrastructure Authority requirements.
What happens next: the county will finalize any interlocal agreements with the city, proceed with design and compliance reporting as part of the HMB scope, and continue project coordination with property owners in the project area.
