Louisville Votes Down the Urban Renewal District

In a 4-3 vote, Louisville's City Council voted down the creation of an Urban Renewal District discussed in previous posts on this blog here and here. The close vote happened with a standing room-only crowd who were mostly against the proposal.

I raised questions about the 25-year window the plan would involve, which was projected to funnel $77 million to the URD and the subsequent mechanism that would handle those funds. I am curious how Louisville residents feel, given that the rules of URD's now preclude the measure from being re-submitted for two years.

Read about it in the Daily Camera.
