Leitchfield council adopts two rezonings, approves routine consent items
Summary
The Leitchfield City Council adopted two zoning map amendments (RZ-26-143 and RZ-26-144) on second and final reading, approved routine consent items including minutes, bills and a poppy proclamation, and scheduled a special meeting; roll-call votes for the ordinances were recorded as vocal affirmations in the transcript.
Leitchfield's City Council voted to adopt two zoning ordinances on second and final reading at its May meeting, approving changes that reclassify several parcels near South Clinton Street and William Thomason Byway and a property at 677 Commerce Drive to highway-commercial zoning.
Tyler presented RZ-26-143, which would change multiple parcels (PVA numbers listed in the ordinance record) from R-2 single-family medium density to C-1 highway commercial at the northeast corner of South Clinton Street and William Thomason Byway. The council moved to adopt the ordinance (motion recorded as "Motion by Clay," second by Tootie) and conducted a roll call during which the transcript records seven vocal "I" responses; the ordinance was adopted on final reading.
Tyler then presented RZ-26-144 to rezone property at 677 Commerce Drive (listed as owned by Scott Smith Overhead Doors Incorporated) from I-2 heavy industrial to C-1 highway commercial. The council moved (Billy), seconded (Clayton), and recorded multiple "Aye" responses in roll call; the ordinance was adopted.
Earlier on the agenda the council approved routine consent items: the regular meeting minutes from May 18 and ratification/approval of bills (a motion to "pay the bills" was recorded); the council also approved a Poppy Week proclamation previously signed by the mayor and Judge Anderson. The transcript records vocal approvals ("Aye") for those items but does not provide full named roll-call details in the minutes for each consent vote.
The council scheduled a special-called meeting for Wednesday, June 3, 2026 at 10:00 a.m., and approved reappointments to the tourism commission for terms ending June 30, 2026. The meeting concluded with routine reports and an adjournment motion.
What happens next: The two rezoning ordinances take effect per the adopted ordinances; the transcript does not record any appeals or further discussion following the roll calls. The council also set a special meeting for June 3 to address forthcoming items.
