Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Government has submitted a building permit for the Sun Valley Pool Replacement Project at 7201 Outer Loop. The plan adds a new 1,700-square-foot, single-story entrance building with a ticketing office, covered entry, outdoor showers, two family-style restrooms, enclosure of the existing utility yard, and renovations to the existing guard room, with an estimated cost of $7,670,000. The permit is currently pending a parking lot-permit verification before it can be issued.
Ford Motor Co has submitted a street closure pre-application for Mermaid Lane at 0 Mermaid Ln, proposing to close about 572.5 feet of the street. The record is listed as submitted with a $250 fee paid and attorney Clifford Ashburner named as the contact, so it appears to be an early-stage request under review rather than a done deal.
Louisville Water Company, via applicant Kelli Starnes, has submitted an encroachment permit for work at 707 E Breckinridge St. The project calls for excavation and a single 5' x 520' pavement cut running from 797 E Breckinridge to 834 S Shelby St with a road closure planned June 21–July 25, 2026; the property owner is Harris Latanja, so expect some digging and temporary detours in the area.
